Did you notice improved performance with the boring head? The reason I ask is because last week you ground the R8 spindle to within .0002. Good idea to replace the simple bushing with commercial off the shelf bearings. That will make future maintenance much easier.

Nice work, Stan! I think the reason that Tom is so good at "eye balling" is that he has his eye calibrated once a year. ... The bandsaws I worked on usually had a thin rubber tire on the wheel. You got better traction and didn't have the offset teeth of the blade dig into your wheel. Granted, these were large, vertical bandsaws with about an 18" throat. ... Thanks for the video! Waiting for the 2016 Bash announcement as I plan to come this year! Have a good one! Did you take the wife out for Valentine's Day? Dave

Great video Stan! Saw is better than it was when it left the factory. Wondering if you might have been able to grab the wheel with a 3 jaw on the 3 cut outs in the spokes?
@PeterWMeek
8 жыл бұрын
Wondering why not register the wheel by indicating on the surfaces where the blade rides. The current location of the bore (maybe it's worn; maybe it wasn't even right from the factory) is less important than the location of the machined surfaces (radial and plane) of the outer rim.

@raincoast2396

+Lasse Langwadt Christensen Crowned wheels are must when utilizing a softer material as in leather or synthetic flat drive belts. Harder materials, such as metal saw blades demand synchronous "true" running wheels, rather than forming to a crowned wheel to gain running trueness. Wheel crown will cause lineal cracks in metal blades.

Let's see now, discovered a problem, determined a method of repair, went on a parts run, yacked it up with the guys at the parts house, acquired the necessary parts, used the mill in another interesting way, same for the lathe, achieved the necessary repair and saw a successful result that may last your lifetime, created a video to share with the worlds machining community and entertained and enlightened many friends new and old. Not a bad way to spend a day. Mike (o\!/o)

Bearings are sized metric. Accident or very special order if matches imperial. Flip the indicator face up and slid point to near rt angle and can view all sides without cocking ones head and moving around,cosine error doesn't matter for locating center. Refurbish at its best.
