Bill/Ralph,
Yeah, more idler adjustment. Fun times. Main problem is that I think I'm

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
The wheels are handy. I¡¯d keep ¡®em. Nice to be able to move the saw around, if for nothing else, to sweep under it, or when you rearrange the shop, or bring in new toys.
Only makes sense for me

come to realize, I don't do the easy stuff. :) my

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
A couple of rubber feet work well, which is what my saw came with.
It has a slide out handle, so it can be moved around like a wheel barrow.
I use it out in front of my shop on the concrete often, as

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Thanks K. I was concerned about that as well. However, that's how I got it

That¡¯s now a good looking saw, and it¡¯s a US built tool.

I really don¡¯t see you having any issue with the bearings you installed. Six years shows that to be true!
