JV, More great info. However, the link isn't working for me. Maybe it's just me? I do plan on fabricating a blade brush/scraper/wiper. If I'm imagining this correctly, the swarf would basically act

Darren, If you are not going to install grease fittings, after filling with grease, you should at least install brass plugs to keep the swarf from migrating into the open hole. Robert Downs Sent:

Good to see it progressing Darren My two cents: If Ed says the cam followers are slush filled that just means there's enough grease in them to stop it rusting etc so it still needs extra grease before

Edward, Great bit if information! That explains the internal threads on the back end of the cam followers! I can't get pictures of the threads, cruddy phone I guess. I was wondering why these things

I was a printing press mechanic for 27 years. We had drum folders that ran at 1200-1350 feet per minute, 8-12 hours per day, 5 days per week. There were 16 each of 3/4" cam followers in these folders,

Hi Darren, The pan came with the lathe, and I’ve had no issues with the edges. Had it for about 15 years. I also never had any issues with the Wellsaw pan, much the same as my lathe pan, and I used

Bill Dang near exactly what I was imagining! Thanks!! Love the innovation with the sink drain. A friend of mine is a plumber and will crack up when I ask for one and then explain why. :) Great setup.

Hey Darren, I think you are on track. Way to go, is get all the bearings replaced, and the obvious repaired. Then after you get it dialed in and cutting straight, you know what you got. As far as a

Bill, I hear ya, loud and clear. This project is literally overkill in just about every aspect. The saw cuts fine, but I enjoy the refurbishing of old tools. I'm a nerd too, so for me, my machines

Hi Darren, Yup….couple of reasons for that…. One is, a cam follower has a lot more stuft. Eccentric haft, bearing and housing, and the bearing is a needle type. Other is, they just don’t make

Bill, You weren't kidding. They are PROUD of those cam followers. However, I believe I have the proper size ordered. We'll see in a couple of weeks, once they arrive from the manufacturer. I plan on

I think you have a well built saw Darren. Just needs a bit of TLC! All the saws I have seen that used cam follower guides were high quality US made machines. I remember a DoAll we had that was built

Bill, I appreciate your positive outlook. :) It's been an education thus far. I.e. concentric vs eccentric. ;). I continue to learn from y'all and appreciate every bit of it! For my own knowledge, and

Happy Thanksgiving Darren, and all! I’d bet they are standard flavor, that you can find easily at a bearing house, or online. Good news is, they are a far better bearing than a ball or deep groove

Dang, I was REALLY hoping that wasn't the case. Wanna bet these are funky dimensions? Time to get out the calipers. Thanks Bill! Happy Thanksgiving to all that celebrate it tomorrow! :) Darren

Those appear to be eccentric cam followers. You don’t replace just the bearing, you replace the bearing, stud & all. Bill Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2018 6:12 PM To: 4x6bandsaw@...

The resurrection of the Bainbridge bandsaw continues. I've refinished the stand and base. Moving on to replacing all the bearings I find myself a bit bewildered. Attached you'll find images of the

Thanks Guys for all the good info. That's a nice doc Carl, on setting up the saw.

Here’s a good document to help set up your saw. Carl H Sent: Friday, November 16, 2018 7:43 PM To: 4x6bandsaw@... Subject: Re: [4x6bandsaw] Concentric Guide Bearing Location
