Hi
I have a number of questions regarding the 8530. Anyone know who manufactured and the model number of original lower spindle bearings ? Seems to be some conflict. I've seen pictures of fafnir 7205wn su from Clausing but from the bearing people that I talked to they were never made in a matched pair. Another website said they installed SKF7205byg which I cant seem to find. Wentstech site said they were matched pair bearings. Some one else said the bearings that came out of their unit was New Departure 30305. So if Clausing is selling the Fafnir 7502wn su what is the difference between the original and what Clausing is pushing.
Anyone have a knee handle, X power feed, or the fast feed handle for the x-axis they are willing to part with?
If I run my spindle at high speed for 15 minutes the quill gets a little warm anyone else have that issue. The spindle sounds fairly quiet.
Thanks
