Hello !

[troy1466]

My UK Facebook marketplace purchase (sellers pics) just replacing the quill shaft bearings tonight ... the motor is noisy too (still looking for replacement bearings)

With that badge, it would be a crime to replace the bearings with any other than SKF bearings.

SKF bearings ordered ! ...

Thank you all ... it is actually my very first American, vintage machine purchase, at first glance of the pictures on the FB sellers page, I wasn't sure if it had been butchered and altered, I was looking for something unique and a bit "off the Hip" for my workshop I have just built (A mix of modern & Retro/vintage fittings and machinery) ... After doing only a small amount of research and joining some groups and this forum ... I think I may have opened trap door for myself, fallen down deep, with no steps for the return journey ...
