Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
If you had to fabricate them in the shop it could be done without a mill. Turn the sleeves to side and file a channel in each side. Silver soldier key stock in place. The channel does not have to be a

Re: Concern with my Spindle
Hey Brad, No the covers shouldn't hold oil.? It is designed as a "total loss" system.? Oil is constantly washing the bearings and surfaces to the bottom of the dust covers and leaks out. I started

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Only way to know for sure is to try it. But I think it will work well. Or at least well enough. The gears and bushings are zamac, not the toughest alloy around. ABS is pretty tough. 3d-printed parts

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Bill, Would the material hold up to the grease and gunk of the gear train? I think it is definitely hard enough using the right material but how is the abrasion resistance and how will it handle the

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Ken, thanks for the idea. I ran across these on the internets yesterday and had never heard of the term elevator bolts.? I think they could work if you can find one with a thick enough flange on it.

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Haha! I was thinking that yesterday when Robert brought to my attention that even if I had a bolt, I'm still missing the rest of the assembly to hold the gear.? So I was thinking I will make the

Re: Concern with my Spindle
Robert, Regarding the covers being seals, that is exactly what I thought. However, after reading a few comments here I started to question my thinking. Thanks for making me question myself less.

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Dave, That's the one.? Robert brought it to my attention that I will need the sleeve and bushing, something in my haste to find a solution didn't even think about.? Rooting around in the parts box

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
That is something that should be 3d-printable. If somebody who has one accessible would take a photo of the end and a couple side views, I'll see if I can make a proper CAD drawing and STL file of it.

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Only one key would probably work OK but with no keys, Murphy¡¯s Law pretty much guarantees that either the gear would rotate and not the bushing (and put wear on the bore of the gear), or that would

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Curious, if it is just a gear in the train is the double key necessary? Why wouldn't a simple snug spacer/bushing work? Another candidate for a commonly available bolt with enough meat on it to modify

Re: Missing Feed Gear Bolt
Yeah, but the kicker is trying to make the bushing with integral external double keys. Without that, you¡¯re still dead in the water. Robert Downs Sent: Monday, January 28, 2019 21:45 To:

Re: Concern with my Spindle
Mike, And after all of that, I didn¡¯t actually answer your question. The holes in the top of the headstock that the oil cups fit into are intended to be between the right bearing cup and the right

Re: Concern with my Spindle
Mike and Brad, There are no seals on the spindle or spindle flange. The four steel cups, one of which is on each side of each bearing on the spindle, have a average clearance of about 0.012¡± all

Re: Concern with my Spindle
The dust covers on my 10F have little slots in them to clear the key . . . My understanding has been that they are there to protect the bearings and are not oil seals . Carvel Sent from Samsung Mobile

Re: Concern with my Spindle
my question would be , if the seals are good on both sides of the bearing ,how does the oil get inside of the bearing ? ??? ??? animal

Hi everyone. I have a Craftsman Commercial 12¡±. It has the Timken bearings - I know because I had it apart two weeks ago to fix the bull gear engagement pin. Another story for another day. Anyway,
