Are you rebuilding with taper rollerbearings? When I went the belt conversion route, I changed the stock bearings for tapers...found the machine much quieter and smoother.. |

There is a very detailed how to do it here :- http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/projects/C3_BC/pages/index.html And yes, it is worth making the effort. Ian |

Ah yes Ian, it shows you all the completed steps but I'm totally new to this and needed to know all the actual nitty gritty of how to do each step, and photo 13 shows a washer set up thats not in the chester lathe i have and also photo 15,that washer is different too,but my main problem was i was wanting to change the hi/lo gears to metal while i was doing the bearings and that involved taking out the layshaft which is'nt mentioned in the arc euro photo board as its not nessessary when just doing the bearings,, but i got there in the end with some help from David and Jim, and it seems to be running fine again with a low gear once more(yippee!) so thanks again guys, as it would'nt even have been attempted if i was'nt able to call on you all for help when i got into trouble... :mmr: ...Mike... |
