...and it's bonded to the inner sleeve. Being rubber and all.

You know if it's a part that could be turned down out of poly bar stock I'm more than happy to help..

Maybe once I've replaced mine I'll be able to visualise what parts actually do what on the idler

Hence my enquiry last week re the lathes. Is there a part seized? Or some issue currently?

The thickness of the wall may hinder machining, as the original
Part is moulded.

But lathe use would be handy.

I reckon one lathe will run just fine with the motor bolted back on

Might even get chance to do that this weekend.. really must get myself a mag base DTI so I can check the bed for true when it's screwed down, too.
