Default RE: Replace Motor Shaft

Hi,

I've had the same problem but in different applications. I'll list some of the "fixes" that may help.

1. Try using hex screws from "dura collars" or wheel collars
2. Try SAE hex screws instead of metric
3. Try finding a regular small bolt and if you find one that works, cut off the head and make a screw driver slot with a dremel cutting wheel
4. or tap the existing threads to a new thread to match a hex screw that you have

Hopefully one of the above will work. Let us know how you make out.
