I really like that one, well done!

I a while back, purchased this flatbelt jackshaft from Andrew "Scalex"...
It was made by late Geoff "OzSteamDemon" Swale, with a coupling and height fitting directly onto the outer end of a Jensen #20 crankshaft.

He sure did, he's missed by so many people.  Hey you're not too shabby your self.

Since PM Research #7 engines have no provisions for pulleys, I devised this countershaft to flat belt to the Flywheel. I can now drive other things with it , such as my machine shop . You may have noticed in some of my other posts , I can replace it with a generator .
