Yea they seem to all be the same. My motor baring is starting to go now. I dont know what would be better, to just keep buying the cheaper brands and replace it every few years or buy an expensive different type and hope it last a long time.
No problem. It worked good for a few months like this and then the barring in the motor started getting really loud. I haven’t figured out how to replace that one yet. I’m sure it’s much more complicated.
It got loud again. I think it may be the motor bearings now. I have looked into fixing it and its more complicated but not imposable. I just haven't decided to get a higher end one or just keep fixing these. I use them a lot for hours so it might be worth it for me to upgrade.
I love repair videos. This is the type of repair I’d try too.
it really wasn't hard at all.
Mine is a harbor freight one. Same design principles as the Ryobi. Busted bearing. Ran it into the ground making spoons and rounding bowl edges.

Thank you for posting this I have the same issue on my machine and my hubby couldn't figure how to get it off either

Great video. I have one of these and it's good to know I can do this if I need to in the future. :)
Thank you, I think if I get one again ill get the protection plan because I know with as much as I use them they only las a year.
Can’t wait for the other one to be fixed.
