If someone owns a Scroll Saw that is mounted to a stand and wanted to convert it to Shopsmith mounted (As James mentioned) one would need the offset mounting posts.

When one looks them up on the scroll saw parts diagram and clicks on 114 for the mounting posts, the site responds with no reference number in the following manner:

undefined * Item Not Found * ... $9,999.99 which is another way of saying Not Available

The Part List itself only goes to 101.

The point I was making is that the offset mounts for the bandsaw etc. are the same and will work for anyone wishing to mount a stand version on an Mark 5 / Mark 7.

They will still need the Power Coupler and 503572 1/2" SPT Accessory Hub set.

Sorry for confusing you.

I am not sure who is confused here but... James' original post referred to the internal pulleys and belt on the stand alone scroll saw which is what the OP referred to with the part numbers. I don't think the OP wanted to make a SS mount to an original stand alone.

BTW, the belt for the Teal scroll saw is available. I bought 2 from SS a year+ ago when mine broke. What a pain to replace. The motor mount is anything but user friendly to get it back in and tension the belt.

As always, maybe I am missing something. :)

Everett!

The reason for John's :confused: :confused: :confused: is that thee is referring to conversion going the opposite direction from the initial post inference. We be surmising fer sure, but having a need for the pulleys is the opposite from needing the Mark 5 mount input shaft.

I am curious why they would need 'replacing'.

Is it possible you are wanting to convert a SS mount scroll saw? If so, I would simply add a v-belt pulley etc..
The pulley on the Scroll Saw Weight & Shaft Assembly is egged shaped were it mounts onto the shaft. This is a stand alone version and the pulley for on the motor assembly needs replacing as well. Dave

I also have a stand alone S/S scroll saw. The driven pulley set screw loosened up and as a result the shaft turned the bore of the pulley out of round, and now the pulley wobbles and the belt pops off. I can't seem to find a replacement, I have checked online, Ebay, no joy! Can some one tell me what part number a replacement pulley would be? that would be a big help in locating one. I do not want to convert mine as I use my Shopsmith for a drill press mostly.
Thank you very much,

OK, Shopsmith no longer sells the motorized version, and they do not carry all the parts for the motorized version (they do have some). They do NOt sell the pulley.
If you search on this forum you will find posts I wrote covering rebuilding my scrollsaw. I purchased a pulley from McMaster Carr and had to turn it on a microlathe to match the pulley on the scrollsaw, but I was able to successfully rebuild that portion (including the shaft). Not easy, but doable.
