Bruce, is this what you are looking for...?

DOLL cast iron lineshaft transmissions #650/1, post #240/1 hight 20.5cm (8in), shaft hight 17.5cm (7in)

[attachimg=1]

or
DOLL cast pewter lineshaft transmissions #354/xx, post #206/4 hight 16.5cm (6.5in), shaft hight 15cm(6in)

[attachimg=2]

To get three similar of them is always somewhat difficult as they are mostly come as a pair...
If you only need three posts w/o base plate and w/o shaft & wheels I'm willing to negotiate disassembling the sets apart.

Don't do it Rainer, don't break them up!  Besides, Bruce wants 8"ers.(https://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji12.png)

It wasn’t a very hard one to guess  :D

By the way, the catalog image shows 2 posts/stanchions, but the description says 3. I will be curious to see what you come up with…

At a 20" long line shaft, it needs 3 stanchions, there are many things different in the description to what the photo actually shows, It says there are 10 pulleys, but only 9 on the board including the transfer transmission on the base, the drill press looks to be operated from the bottom pulley (which none have) I have some size appropriate stanchions coming, I already have the grinding table made, I have dozens of Jensen #100 pulleys that I can turn down....ect. i would like to have a really good, detailed photo of the add in my hands though.
