Alrighty folks... I've been digging, and can't seem to come up with a firm answer...
I've got a 1982 Supermax YC-1 1/2VS... I picked it up at a great price, but the shaft on the 2HP motor has a seriously wallered out (Technical term) keyway... The base of the shaft measure 25mm (.984), keyway measures 7mm (.275).
I was hoping to pickup a Bridgeport 2HP armature, but I can't seem to find much for reference on the 2HP BP shaft, but 1.179 seems to come up, so the BP motors have too large a shaft.
It seems that my options are to either weld up the current shaft and re-machine it, or replace the entire motor/vari-pulley assembly with a Bridgeport version (Doable?)
I've looked for a Supermax Replacement motor/armature, but have come up empty.
Toss out your comments, I'd love to hear them!
Thanks!
Ron
