    Thanks for the info, no insult taken. That would be a good way to torque something to a very accurate value.

    I did some manual testing against a snap-on torque wrench, which I can't say is the...

    No problem, thanks for trying. I landed up buying a few from Grizzly for spares. I am going to try turning all of the cutters on my G0490x jointer now. I am curious if those are going to break...

    Looking forward too it.

    I think I might give this a try. Doesn't hurt to ask.

    I highly doubt I was over titening the bolts with the torque wrench set the way I did. I honestly could have snapped them off with a straight driver. I'm guessing the bolts are bad, especially since...

    Good to hear it was not just mine that did this. I agree its quite easy to remove them if they break. I guess I will just get them from grizzly as I have no spares left now.

    Its just a small one. Goes up to 80 inch pounds. I did suspect that as well, but a lot of them worked with no problem. I probably broke about 10 of 72. I suspect the bolts that broke were faulty.
  8. Not sure what model it is, and if I remember...

    Not sure what model it is, and if I remember correctly the grizzly manual said 50 inch pounds. I had it down to 30 inch pounds so they wouldn't snap off.

    Interesting thing is that I never...

    This is close and would probably work. The original is undercut below the head. Not sure why.
  10. They all broke in the undercut section just under...

    They all broke in the undercut section just under the head of the bolt. The threaded part of the bolt was threaded all the way into the head, but these bolts are manufactured with a very loose...
  11. Thanks for this. Dan.

    Thanks for this.

    Dan.

    Thats definitely more reasonable in price. But, I think the head will be too large. This is what the salesman at Fastenal noticed as well. The head on this bolt is almost half the size it normally...

    G0453PX and G0490X. Both take the same cutter heads and bolts.

    Just came from Fastenal. The guy said he had never seen a bolt like that.
  16. Tried McMaster. I couldn't find anything on...

    Tried McMaster. I couldn't find anything on there website that came close. Seems like it might be custom bolt of some kind.

    I would suggest to anyone doing the change on there spiral cutter...
  17. Grizzly planer and jointer spiral cutter head bolts

    Hello,

    Wondering if anyone else has rotated there spiral cutter heads and broke the torx bolts? I would like to order replacement bolts, but I am unable to find them from any other place than...

    Got a bit further on this project. Added the top molding along with the top, added all of the beading on the case, and added the two drawers. I still cannot decide on the foot design, or perhaps to...

    Perhaps a slight taper in at the bottom.

    Thanks for the reply. I looked into the marlbourough foot design, but couldn't find much that didn't have fluted legs, which I don't want on this piece. The only other search that came up with some...

    Hello,

    That looks quite similar and it looks like it is per-portioned nicely. Do you have a sketchup file for download?
