McMaster pulleys + belt

Hi guys,

I know this question has (somewhat) been asked before. But I'm not looking for a long answer from any of you guys.
Basically I'm about to order MXL pulleys + belt for my darwin.

My yes or no question is:

Will they work? (the x, y, z pulleys + the belt).

I know I have to do some modification to the pulleys (which is fine), however, I don't wanna buy them and not use them at all.

If anyone sees a major issue with getting my pulleys and belt from there, please let me know.

YOUR HELP WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED.

Thanks,
Mahdi

As long as they match your steppers, you should be fine. I used 20 tooth 1/4" bore MXL pulleys on my Darwin's X and Y, but not from McMaster, and so far they've been great. Just switch out the 8 mm Y drive shaft for a 1/4" shaft and you're golden. On the Z, 60 tooth 1/4" bore MXL pullies tap out to M8 nicely. A 1/4 " coupler will make life easier too.
