Thanks you guys.
The project is actually finished except for paint. I installed the assembly in the band saw and other than needing to add a washer to keep the wheel from rubbing on the cover it works great. I have to remove it from the saw to paint so I can then get some pics of the finished product. I got in a hurry when making the pivot bar but you can see it in the finished assembly. I was able to use my new boring head to bore the hole for the main shaft. There were a lot of personal machining firsts for me and I learned a ton.
I'll try to get the rest of the pictures up this week.
