Grizzly Tools also sells arbors for 5/8" and 1/2" shafts (I think it is www.grizzly.com), hardly the best, but good enough to get your feet wet imo and they work ok for pedal generators as well. I believe the last ones I purchased were $3.50 (US) each, not sure if they ship international though.
Best,
Tim
P.S. just checked,

Hi Scooter,
If no other options work better for you, I can buy one from "Canadian Tire" and send it to you for no extra cost(you have to pay what I am paying to Canadian Tire" and the shipping). I did that before for other forum members.
If I remember well, the price for the arbour, including taxes is about 15CAD (7.7 GBP) and the shipping should be between 9-12CAD (up to 6.2GBP)

It's not the best quality you can find on the market, but it worked fine for me.

Hi Scooter,
You have four options. You can use a pulley with a 5/8" bore (I think I might have one somewhere if you're interested) and then bolt through the pulley onto your hub.
Option 2 is to ask Jonnny (Forum member) to make you one up on his lathe. He's done a few for Gotwind members and by all accounts does a superb job for very reasonable money.
Option three is to find someone with access to a lathe or ask a local engineering company.
Last option is to search on ebay.com (the USA site) for one. Not everyone will post to the UK.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Del. |
