The adventures of a Jeep and its driver.
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.

The table gib for the K&T 2HL horizontal milling machine has a lot wrong with it. Not only is it a banana, it has a lot of scoring and is worn about .013” as best I can measure. The bow is easy enough to fix quickly in the arbor press. And I would love to be able to grind it and scrape it but that is beyond my capability or budget. Or even make a new one. I’ll shim it when I put it back in. Maybe someday this machine will get a real rebuild but until then, I need to make it good enough.
