I've been lurking on the forum for a while reading about all the fantastic bandsaw mills that members have built.

Living in Scotland there is unfortunately zero choice in 2nd hand mills and pretty much nothing new sub £3k at the entry level so I've decided to have a go building one myself.

Gathering the things that I need, so far I've a pile of steel, band wheels & bearings on the way and just managed to source an engine.......which is where I have run into a problem.

Its a Honda GX620 and so has a 1" shaft on it. Ideally I'd like to run a centrifugal clutch with a pulley on it, 5" would be perfect for the getting the pulley ratios where I need them.

However, as I want a pulley rather than teeth as well as a 1" bore I am struggling. I've only managed to find one and the feedback for the seller leaves a lot to be desired.

Any suggestions as to where to source on in Europe?

Thanks
