You may have covered this in 'another thread', however, how is the coupler hub attached to the shaft? Hub bored out to 13/16?

Sounds like more than a passing interest. Are you planning to make one?

Yes, just not soon. Have to finish refurb first, but makes good sense to enable the 10E to drive SPT's.

I picked up a 2"x5/8" pulley this aft. Will fabricate a bushing to go between new pulley and cone pulley&13/16" shaft.

Like may things, there is more than one way to approach this. As I recall, one user over on the yahoo group used a short section of the splined shaft from an old quill. This was inserted through the headstock pulley into the drive sleeve and the drive hub attached to the splined shaft. I don't recall how the shaft was secured in the sleeve and my 10ER is not readily visible

to check it out. A search of the yahoo site will probably yield the anwer.

Yes the od of the spline is about 5/8" and it sticks out of the end of the main shaft when fully retracted. I initially thought that might be how his was done. That is why a sleeve is required between the step pulley and the added pulley/shaft/hub. My current thinking is to secure the new sleeve to the main shaft with a set screw rather than drill into the step pulley. The new pulley would attach to the new sleeve.

If I can get fancy enough, The new sleeve could be made to directly adapt the 13/62 main shaft to the 5/8" shaft for the hub and allow clearance for the spline shaft protrusion.(one piece)

I know this is an old thread and I'm off the main topic of discussion, but, Wow! Nice cleanup! Care to share any techniques for cleaning up the aluminum parts and the way tubes?

Also, what sort of ships do you wright? I built a little 15-footer long ago.

v/r,

Rick

Here's a web album of my cleanup. Nothing like the Mickyd masterpiece to be found here but quick and relatively easy. https://picasaweb.google.com/paulm549/10ERCowichanBay

The link below is my current boat that I built when I retired, but to see more check here: http://lumberjocks.com/shipwright/projects

Take a sack lunch with you on that journey!;)

Check his profile for a glimpse of his retirement boat project under sail.

You should see the black walnut columns in his house! Segmented like a mast. He posted that somewhere on here!

I said it before - saying it again - synonym for a craftsman is Shipwright!
