I'm in Austria and they accepted my card with an Austrian address !!?? I try and avoid like the plague buying from the UK as the duty and vat make it unworkable (royal mail is pretty crappy too) Cheers Andrew

I've got a feeling your going to have to do a bodge on this one. I would imagine my idea of tapping a couple of holes and fitting grub screws into the pulley from both sides would hold it. some JB weld epoxy in there would solidify everything. Cheers Andrew

Which part number are you after? I'm in Austria and maybe I can get it from the website here? Cheers Andrew

I've just checked on this bosch site https://www.boschtoolservice.com/de/de/boschdiy/spareparts/bandschleifer-pbs-75-0603270003 and both pulleys are listed as avaiable. Which pulley ae you looking for 831 0r 843 ? If you run the mouse over the parts diagram a price and availability box opens...

Nice Job you just need to set the intonation now!!:):) Cheers Andrew

If you want a good finish for that head, get yourself some rustins plastic coating. It's tough as old boots. I finished an SG guitar I made about 50 years ago and it held up really well. You could also get it in smaller quantities. Hopefully they haven't changed the recipe. Rustins also do a...

And he`s running the cut in the wrong direction, what a wally !!

Well If they are metric then you should have no trouble finding equivalents in the UK. You would probably find that they(Prucha) would send you the replacement parts. The only problem being the post brexit fines by the customs and uk postal services. Cheers Andrew
