chris sutton 610 #1 Posted December 13, 2016 I converted my front wheels and hubs on my Raider 12. found a couple of wheels of an old trolley used a length of solid bar, bored a 3/4 hole through it and turned it down to fit the bearings. slid it over the Wheelhorse stubs and made a cup washer to hold it on. easy job, just a bit of labour. 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge 3,464 #4 Posted December 13, 2016 Best investment ever and worth all the pain of paying almost $1,000 for mine , getting it apart and moved into the basement (1,200lbs, ugh) and despite the wear in it does a very good job with my limited skills running it . Thanks to a machinist friend I'm learning and needless to say - I do a lot of repairs on his equipment and welding without hesitation . Gotta have friends in the right places , lol . Yesterday , in the Off Season of Construction work he sends me a link for a sale ad - a nice single phase 110v Mighty MIte milling machine - nice compact unit that could be put in my current shop and seller is asking $2500 - I just can't swing it right now and I'd imagine it's already long gone . Stuff like that lasts about 5 minutes on the sale sites around here....gotta be quick . Sarge 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
