    The lovejoy coupling looks similar to the jaw couplings i'm using but with more spider teeth. The Oldham looks like a superior solution. I'll investigate.

    I'm going to re-align the two shafts again and see if I can improve on yesterdays attempt. If no improvement i'll look to other areas and investigate the pulley's & belt option, which I think I have 'in stock' in the workshop.
    I personally would go with the pulley and htd belt as that can help stop resonance.

    I also noted that you don't have all the bolts in the bearing blocks and as BeagleBrainz has pointed out the type of bearings in the block need to be checked.
