I strongly suggest you contact Vivian at: VXB.com BALL BEARINGS 2165 S Dupont Dr Unit F Anaheim CA 92806, USA Tel (714) 442-2740 Dir. (714)385-0022 Fax (714) 442-9740 http://www.vxb.com/ She has probably gone through this a thousand times but I'll try to give you as much info as I can. These are the bearing kit numbers and how many you will need to do the entire mechanism with the exception of the motor itself. I have the sleeve numbers around here somewhere. They have to be bought from Dewalt at http://www.service.dewalt.com. kit # 8616 part # HK0609 times 12 kit # 7492 part # HK0810 times 2 kit # 7189 part # HK1412 times 2 Ok, just found the sleeve info. Here it is: quantity 8 of 286294-00 short sleeve quantity 2 of 286295-00 long sleeve quantity 2 of 286430-00 Drive link sleeve quantity 1 of 286282-00 Pivot rod sleeve Good luck on your rebuild. If you haven't already watched it, I strongly recommend watching the 4 part video series that Bob Brokaw did for the Gwinnette Wood Workers. It's on Youtube.

Heck RJF, I still collect pictures of dead presidents but they are getting harder and harder to find and when I find one, I can't afford it.

Travis, I contacted the seller of this work on eBay to see if they had the pattern or could send me to the designer/cutter/creator. They told me that they only sell the finished products and all the rights and licenses belong to the creators. They told me that they get the finished works from an outfit in Texas by the name of "The Handcrafted of Houston". So, I found their website to see if I could get some info and they won't even talk to me unless I can produce a retail tax number and send them a photocopy of my license. Not friendly at all. I just wanted to ask a question. Anyway, that's where it stands for now. I would say that if we want to just do a cutting for our own use, so be it. Tough Noogies!

Barb, there are many other bearings in that mechanism that need to be serviced at least once. Get some good synthetic grease and a couple of pipe cleaners and at least do that if you don't want to take them apart for inspection. You have only scratched the surface with what you have done.

There is a great tractor/steam power museum in Vista Ca. and they have an open house twice a year. I try to attend one if them every year. I am fascinated by the old equipment. The one that really got me was/is a motorized rope maker. They always set it up with 8-12 different colored threads and as the head rotates there is a collection of threads going down a hole in the center as braided rope. It's mesmerizing. As my wife will verify. She always has to drag me away from it.

I have the bearing list that was referred to above but it doesn't include motor bearings. I questioned the OP about his needs but no response.

Exactly.

It's really not that difficult to do. In fact, the video that Dave Monk recently posted does a great job of explaining the process. You just will be working with veneers instead of thicker wood which requires tilting the table more. What stopped me from doing more of it is that you end up with a very thin sheet of wood with a picture on it. Then you have to have a use for it. I guess you could just frame it and have another wall hanger. Anyway, it's fun to do and another skill learned.

I'm not positive that these are what you are looking for but if so, here ya go. Cheap too. https://www.ebay.com/itm/BLH7802-Motor-Bearing-Set-OEM-Replacement/142101861520?epid=1540494340&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item2115ee5490:g:VVEAAOSwRF1cGadr:sc:USPSFirstClass!92649!US!-1&enc=AQADAAAB4KX%2FKt4E1xf3SDqEdBclaYYCqswzB0n6vyEfmYmKoqjxGghAr2r1WxG17IgLJSo3KyPgu5eWPHtCQ6af5NSL1wnK3ZB87iXk7OJ5YpC9w0GYrul83FD3XpFNCr13wtPxIMHiXTAaWbG6vzzlF%2B2NJbuYk%2FkkhRtWnENG0CRSbpwzrf%2F98El2u7CiZW9Kv%2F6wiK0b4xVMy7WCwYac%2Fv38FjGZWtKdyrYNEj1KFaOLb2JjprwuANCpI57C8kDxQ%2Fa1GMnujJwm5q4v6STW2TSlDbE9YFlgI%2FiL%2Fne6a6lrAw2VHNIfg7LLVAzxdSYnXPsQPWRrDRY9%2BZwkscZvTDdryJ%2FgR946n%2F9RwHmqB34dsdlj1k8q83bEABuSLtScBiUv8gLesTVuBuAqYXBJB%2Fm%2BUwfFcowX2SMji6pogRmE194HXuExBIbzUUGyZUQEcu4C0by2yvlP2he%2Bl09N1lzyAkvYm1Ad7OSAS3DQhSNY3s8Pz07T7O1WVz6BhYh0SJJL3VgYzSYksfUULyg%2Fo1PeiJkZtC7tfl5%2FfQShqHGnmGTQYtn7lgEOXHxkttfNeBcmUMNdyKRQ2V6b%2FYRQKdpzfzhLX2kPP%2BQhFwuV5ub%2Bdi2FmjY9JkKlyHPbK5%2FpObSrLg%3D%3D&checksum=142101861520502581e8fddc42e68b1bd0610e940fb6

Congrats on that 55 Stoney. And thanks for the nice words.

Another topic that seems to have gone off the rails.

You said motor bearings. Did you mean that or do you need a list of all the bearings/sleeves? I don't know if anybody on SSV has ever rebuilt the motor. I see motors on eBay from time to time. Not cheap.

I spent $50 and took his class about 3-4 years ago. I highly recommend the book that I have mentioned in previous posts.

They'd probably sue me for burning their house down. Can't trust anybody anymore.

You are very welcome Stoney. He is truly a master at marquetry. I only took one of his classes and came away with a pretty good understanding of how it works.

Barb and I went to the Orange County Fair yesterday and they always have a great showing by the Orange County Woodworkers and the Orange County Scroll Saw Assoc. Actually, this is how I got interested in scrolling. Four years ago I met a gentleman by the name of Ken Cowell who was doing a demonstration of marquetry on his homemade scroll saw that he operated with one foot on a treadle board. Anyway, he wasn't there yet yesterday but this table was on display. He did a masterful job on it. I hope to be able to do something like this someday. Maybe. Possibly. If I live long enough.

I just ran an "image" search on google and it looks like it is for sale on eBay. I downloaded a good picture of it and will try to make a pattern from it.

I have no idea who but I would like to find out myself. I can see that on the lid of a jewelry box.

Brenda, that looks so painful. I got burned pretty bad when I was a teenager from a steam explosion of a car radiator. It got me on my chest and under my neck and one arm. So, I know what you are feeling. I am praying you heal quickly. That burn looks like it should have a layer of Vaseline on it and a layer of gauze to keep the open air off of it.

Something like a scroll saw machine?

This hobby has totally grabbed me. Best ever.

Our 50th is in December. It's been quite a ride.

I've considered that too. The reason I was looking at the old Craftsman is, it is the only drill press I've ever seen that has a quill lock on it. That is such a handy thing to have that when you don't have it, you'll miss it. Just being able to bring the quill down with a sanding drum in it or whatever the reason, and just turn the little lever on the left side, then the quill stays where you put it. I loved it and after I sold my other Craftsman, I sure did know I made a mistake. I'm still looking to replace it.

Workout room? Why would anybody want to intentionally make sweat? I do my workout getting out of bed 3 times a night to pee.

No, I've been busy doing these compound cuts and I needed the drill press to drill the holes in them. Once I get done with it, I"m going to tear it apart. I just know that as soon as I do, I'll need it right away. I almost bought a drill press yesterday on C/L. It was a really nice restored Craftsman bench model with a keyless chuck. He was asking $120 for it. A steal but I was too slow on the draw. He sold it to the guy just ahead of me. Oh well.............it wasn't meant to be.
