And the reason they don't recommend large diameter face Mills and fly cutters is because of the splines and dog clutch, the interrupted cuts beat the snot out of those splines and teeth, also the key on the varispeed pulleys, as shown in my previous post, I had to have the shaft of the motor machined to accept a larger step key, I went that route rather than just turning the shaft 90 and cutting a standard key
I'm in the process of turning new acetal bushings, they were non existent when taken apart, so it's been running on .020 clearance between the motor shaft and pulley
