You have probably seen it but well worth a watch - it is the conversion kit but it gave me in idea of what was involved minus machining the parts! Anyone any vids or info about machining the pullys - are they just turned on the lathe from a large diameter stock?

Those are the plans I used. Made a world of difference in my mill. I did the conversion before I stripped out a gear, didn't want that headache to worry about. If I push too hard the belt just slips. I also found a cheaper source of belts than Little Machine Shop. I got them for under $4 a piece so I bought 5. If they don't dry rot they ought to last me at least 10 years. :thumbup:
