The table is off the K&T! It was actually a lot easier than I was expecting it to be. The good news is the ways look pretty good. The bad news is the bearings need replaced and they are EXPENSIVE (at least to me)! See the link in my bio for the YouTube video on how I removed it.

I feel like something is missing here. 😂 Check out my latest video on the Kearney & Trecker 2HL mill (link in bio). I got the feed distribution box out of the knee, with a few issues.

Even though there is a bunch of surface rust in this feed distribution unit, the gears themselves look good. Spraying everything I can with kerosene and scrubbing with nylon and brass brushes, where I can reach. Trying to deal with the worst parts. I’ve been spinning the gears and the bearings don’t feel bad at all. As much as I would like to take this thing completely apart, clean everything and replace all the bearings, it’s not really feasible. There’s no guide in existence on how this goes together, outside of the parts manual. It’d be a guessing game on proper sequence. Lots of taper pins I am sure. The risk of breaking something or it not going back together the right way is higher than the risk of cleaning it the best I can and running it. If I had 55 gallons of @evapo_rust, I’d build a vat and soak it. But, instead I’ll fill the knee with kerosene with frequent changes until what comes out is acceptable.

I wish I could remember who pointed me in the direction of this stuff, so I could at least give some credit. This is EPDM Rubber Trim from McMaster (Part 5/8” wide x 3/4” high. Fits perfectly in the T slot of the Bridgeport. 10 feet was only $33.20. No more digging chips out of the slots or dropping a drill bit in there either. Pulls right out when you need to use them.
