My Austrian generator arrived on Friday, for the price I was very pleasantly surprised with the assortment of
extras that came with it as stock parts.

The packaging was second to none, highly recommended seller.

FINALLY!!! IT’S HERE!!! They have a very nice look to them and the extra pulleys are a great bonus

I should have saved on postage Nick and got a couple off him

That’s what I did, bought a standalone and one with lamp post

That's what I wished I'd done 

I could see as soon as I opened the box why his genny's are so popular.

The ones I have this seller a couple with lights and a stand alone. The lighted ones have one wire going up
through the lamp post and soldered to the bulb and the other wire has a loop on the end and is under the lamp
base and held in place and grounded with the screw. The lamp post is too narrow at the top for two wires so
I used a different lamp post and changed one over to LED.

I have a question for those of you who just got one of these Austrian Genny's.
Are the set screws more consistent or do they look like mine?
They look like he grabbed a screw out of box of mixed ones and drilled and tapped the pulley to fit.
There's even a Philip's Screw in the the second row to the far right. See Pics.

Are your pulleys actually brass, or is that just the lighting giving them that color, and did you buy four of his gennys?

Yes, my four pulleys do have three different kinds of set-screws, two allen, one slotted and one Phillips.

Hi Daniel, yes they're brass, heavy, and yeah I have four of them. Kind a wish I had one or two in
aluminum, silver in color.
