I got this treadmill motor several years ago with dreams of putting it on my Grizzly G4000. For various reasons, I never got around to it. Now, I think it would make a great belt grinder motor.
It think it is a pretty good motor and I do have a controller that should work with it, but my problem is how do I attach a pully to the motor shaft which is step threaded but has no key groove. It might be possible to cut a key way in it, but it seems like it would not be a minor endeavor.
The shaft is 17mm and the major diameter of the threads is right at .5" with left hand threads.
Any suggestions? Am I missing something simple?
