Joe,
As it turned out, the edge of the pulley was right next to and perpendicular to
a long beam piece.  We just used hot glue to glue it to the beam and held it in
place until the glue dried and had no trouble at all.  The pulley can't come
out of the sensor.  Hope that makes sense.

In the kit you will find a number of pulleys about 1 inch in diameter.  These
are narrow enough to fit through the sensor.  They have six holes in them and
if they are on an axle, will give you 12 pulses per revolution - 2 pulses per
hole. One when the sensor starts seeing the hole and one when it stops seeing
the hole.  They work great.

These are what I also have been trying to use to break the beam, they seem to
be the best choice. My question was more about how you mounted the sensor. I'm
curious to know what piece people had glued the sensor to, and to see if they
used some sort of jig to make sure the sensor was aligned properly before you
began glueing.

Thx :)
