I love the way you were able to just use experience and good mechanical sense to not only figure out what needed to be done, but how to do it. Awesome. I think I read 12 guides and instructions before I ever tried something like this my first time.
Right on. I did not do my motor but it seems to be working okay. One might not use a table saw all the time, but it is sure nice to have a good one when you need it. Thanks. Stevo
Very informative. Thank you. Looks almost identical to my early 2000's JET. They must have bought the Rockwell Co. I'm in process of replacing the same 6203 bearings on my arbor. Had to use a power press to remove shaft because of some internal rust on the pulley. Doesn't take much to make it quite difficult.
I am a big fan of that old Jet equipment, made in America. I was not aware that they are similar. Jet is not common up here in Canada if fact we can't even buy their new stuff. Now that you have er tuned up, it is going to be a great saw, give it a hug. Thanks. Stevo
Great video...I picked up an off brand used "Transpower" Delta knock off cabinet saw and needed to replace these bearings. Your saw is almost identical. 6204LB bearings. Biggest difference was that the threaded locking ring was reverse thread for me. Took me awhile pounding in the wrong direction + heating to figure that out! Thanks
I am surprised that the locking ring was reverse thread, that would have been frustrating. Quite simple once you get going though. Worth the effort when you get it done. Thanks. Stevo
I was surprised on the price of the bearings, I think the little mini ones for the router bits are more. This saw is going to be a good one. Thanks. Stevo
"I can expand my horizons". Yeah you don't have enough to do either. (sarcasm) It is actually nicer than my old Rockwell. I wished i had a helper. LOL Your editing rocks sir. You could have used my jack press. I call the T nuts Cantruss Nuts. From my old days as in my aluminium beam
How's she goin'? Nice work getting the bearings changed. I rebuilt my King Cabinet saw a couple of years ago. It's pretty similar to this one and it's a great saw too. This saw will last a hundred years for sure. Thanks for sharing Stevo and take care!!!

I agree. If you can watch a few videos and pick up a couple tips from each one, you will find success. Thanks for tuning in. Stevo
this is by far the best explanation of replacing bearings on the unisaw. Thanks stevo!
Thanks muchly. The ole saw is still working great. Stevo
@@stevoj8959 Nice! I just followed your instructions and changed my 1965 unisaw bearings the exact same way. did the motor as well.

Nice work, Steveo. Great camera work. Thanks.
It was a fun job because it was easier than I thought. Working on the tables now. Thanks. Stevo
By far the best and informative video... and there are tons of them out there. Good job!
Thanks for the comment. A great machine and worth fixing. Thanks. Stevo

That was a good price for the bearings to fix a good old machine that is not a cheap made newer one

Enjoyed the video sir, those jobs can be a pain but you did great look forward to the next. Cheers
It was a little easier than I thought it was going to be. Can't wait to get the tables done and put er to use. Thanks. Stevo
I have the same saw, its build rock solid to last .
I think this saw will do me proud. Amazing how much more simple the old equipment is, probably why it lasts longer. Stevo

Cantruss nuts is new to me but they are for extruded aluminum. I think it is going to be a good saw, looking forward to getting it done. Stevo

Having a bigger saw is just safer, you don't push the limits. Having trouble finding a spot to put it but I know it will be worth having around. Stevo
Great job stevo
It was fun to finally get at it. Easier than I thought. Thanks. Stevo
That’s a beautiful saw. Looks like you are missing the right wing for that top. Vinny 🇺🇸
I built an outfeed table and a side table for it. Eventually mounted a router in the side table. Almost a must for a practical saw. Thanks. Stevo
