  • @paulpaulides9454
    @paulpaulides9454 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I do believe the bearings should be double shielded, double sealed. The are open at bottom and are subject to contamination. Double sealed bearings are lubricated for ever in the type of use where little or slow rotation is the work.

    After watching one of your videos last winter, I bought a can of that CRC SP-350. Since I wasn't going to be using my mill and lathe for a few months over the summer, I wanted to spray them both down with it. Here a couple of weeks ago I went to clean them both off and put them back into service--that stuff is GREAT! It was still well-coated on all parts I had applied it to several months ago, and cleaned off easily with WD-40. Definitely made a believer out of me!

    As an absolute amateur in regard to working on industrial machinery, I recently completed the teardown/reassembly of a Bridgeport style mill... and I am so glad to see a number of the techniques in this video that I used in the process of completing my project. It helps me feel better that I (more or less accidentally) got it done right. 🙂

    Machinery is a wonderful invention. Once it is all together the user has very little understanding of the internals. A few dials and away you go. It is very educational to see the mechanism from the engineer's point of view. Good job, Adam! Anyway, thanks for sharing! Stay healthy!

    Putting things back to OEM always makes the manual correct. My experience rebuilding count less industrial machines, we liked to use the xxxx 2RS bearings. They are sealed (rubber seal) on both (2) sides and do not need to be lubricated. One less failure point.
