Well i was looking around in the shed and i found a few nice big lumps of alloy and decided to make a set of front pulleys....First pic shows the peice being set up in a four jaw chuck...second pic is the rear of the pulley being shaped out..next one the recess/offset in the rear is being shaped out.....then the ribs for the drive belt are being dug out (the pulley begins to take shape)....as the night wears on ;) its cut off and mounted on the way it sits on the engine and the front is sculptured out...after a quick buff with emrey cloth and there she sits next to the original!!Cloned in alloy!I next series of DIY will show anodizing in your garden shed :cheers: .....i am not a tight arse...i just lost a yahoo auction on Greddy front pulleys and decided...Bah who needs yahoo

*EDIT*damn...someone give me an email addy...i cant post the pics*

you buy the material and i will machine them up and anodize them.....Machine shops charge around $80 an hour i think and the anodizing you can price up...so in short...buy some greddy ones (not to mention i think you will do poos in your pants when you go to buy the alloy) :cheers:
