Hello again. Sorry for the repeat below.
I have tried to start a conversation but it doesn't like my spam-like (?) content, or perhaps it is because I am a new member.

Hi Brent
I would like to contact you about a problem I am having with my SM 1020 rebuild. The ABC gear set binds on the intermediate shaft but I cannot see a cause. I have decided to remove the shaft and inspect, and would like your input on the steps. May I send you an email with more information, as here I am limited to 420 characters?

Hello,

I am interested in buying the adjustable parallels if they are still for sale. Just let me know. I would need them shipped as well on my dime of course.

Thanks,

Yes, got it, here's your tracking# CJ152137143US USPS Priority mail, it says 6–10-day delivery, I guess it has to go through customs.
Thanks, let me know when they arrive.

just took it to the post office, my wife somehow put hruul as last name on form, I crossed it out and wrote in Pickett.
PO guy said it won't affect declaration form, but you'll probably see it on the tracking page.

Bonjour Brent,

Svp peux tu m'envoyer une photo de proche pour que je puisse la reproduire? et si possible a mon adresse couriel ?

For my horizontal drive I use a serpentine belt from an auto parts outlet. The spindle has to be removed to install it.

+1 on a serpentine belt. No need to pull the spindle. Cut to length +2", grind 2" lap down to reinforcing fibers on both ends (taking care not to grind into the fiber), install on machine, glue with GOOP, clamp and let set overnight. Won't stretch, slip or rot.

Hi Davet, would it be possible to email me a copy of the parts list for the FIRST milling machine please. I bought one recently and need a number of spares and have no idea where I can source them. Any info would be very much appreciated.

Hello Ron,

I would be interested in a few items that you have for sale. Would it be best to connect by phone.
