VPI MOTOR PULLEY ??

^  Did you ask remind Bes that you have had no answer?  Not saying you "should" have to but a follow up reminder to the dealer may have benefited you.

I always talked to Mrs Harry [Sheila?] but she has been gone for some years. My memory for names is not good since my surgery. Harry was always helpful but he must be getting up there as he is about my age, 75 He can correct me on this, their son was also good. His name is gone.

Basis also makes good tables. I would go used as tables seem to depricate more than most. Service on tables has never been good. In  1970 I wanted a arm board for a current Sony belt drive. I could not fine one and I was living in NYC then I went out to Sony headquarters in Long Island City. After an extended search of their wear house they found ONE. I ask them how much it was and they didn't know and they gave me that one for nothing saying that they wound never get another anyway.

Harry seems sharp as a tack from his posts on the VPI forum.  He posts there regularly.  His son Matt also posts and answers questions multiple times a week.  Marc, seems to be a technician at VPI, and is always answering questions as well as giving advice.  Harry is doing "cutting edge" stuff in his basement as well and posts his thoughts and creations on Facebook.  VPI is defiantly NOT slowing down it seems.  You just have to let the memory of Shelia answering the phone, waiting for you to send a check before sending parts out go by the wayside.  I too miss that but VPI is still a real force in the industry.
