Hi again. Right, I managed to duplicate your ideas. I hope I can attach photos but they are almost the same as Richards photos. Now on to taking care of the other Unimat that will be setup as a lathe . Regards

Thank you Pat but I prefer Richards idea as there would be need of making more difficult parts to achieve this. It would probably work. Regards

That's an excellent idea. Simple enough. Regards

I did this but it is wobbling a bit now as I had to do it by free hand with a hand held drillingmachine. But it will do as a starter . Thanks a lot. Regards

Ok, I can confirm that I'll need the top-hat bushings. Regards

Hi, I'm new to this forum and this is the tread that took me here. I have almost gathered all parts except the 8mm motor pulley - could some kind soul give a link to where I can get two of these as I'm making the motor conversion on two Emco SL 1000 lathes. I am also wondering about if someone is still making the "top hat" bush? I could use two of them - maybe... I'll know when I've got that thetered pulley off the shaft. FYI I gathered these: Speed control: http://www.ebay.com/itm/10V-60V-20A-Pulse-Width-Modulator-PWM-DC-Motor-Speed-Controller-Control-Switch/121733845515?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Motor: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Small-Electric-E-Scooter-Bike-MOTOR-24-Volt-DC-150-Watt-24v-150w-Belt-Drive/172731697838?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 PSU: http://www.ebay.com/itm/AC-DC-1A-5A-10A-30A-50A-70A-Switching-Power-Supply-Driver-5V-12V-24V-F-LED-Strip/222288584678?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=521153636254&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 I bought the 20A 24V model. Struggling with the belt drive pulley - as said it is glued very well... Regards
