    Replacement headstock position lock for Axminster Perform CCL

    How about a bolt in a plate. Perhaps a little oversized for the slot so you can file the threads away, so as to have a flat face against the pulley?

    Need to escape/reset

    I'd suggest getting rid of stuff, rather than storing it, you only have to carry it with you later on. Getting rid might also be helpful in dealing with any understanding lying issues your Mrs may have which manifest themselves through the hoarding.

    Modular, dismantlable, MFT workbench

    Just an idea for those short if space how about having an over lay made up of 2x18mm plywood or 2" pine covering the front 12" of the mft and a 6" apron secured with a couple of dogs so that you can use hand tools.
