Here's the spider I just finished for my PM1127-VF. It has an extended mounting collar that fits inside the spindle bore and it mounts to the spindle end pulley assembly using two screws (just a bit longer than the OEM) in place of the shorter OEM screws. I am a novice hobby machinist and, as one might expect, this project did not go as smoothly as I had hoped. This is actually my third attempt at getting the mounting screws properly position to mate with the spindle pulley and the spider screws correctly aligned along the circumference. I included those errors in the images to demonstrate to others that an error does not have to equal failure. To correct my errors I simply filled the "mistakes" with machine screws and cut them off/machined them flush with the face of the spider. The third set of holes bear witness to the fact that we can recover the material to live another day.
