Niels - Wow! Thank you so much for these! I wish I knew how to do this. I need to carve out some time to learn. I appreciate all of the time you put into these models. I'm afraid I don't know...

Hello, I am looking for some advice from anybody who has disassembled a Pike grinder. I have removed the screws keeping the crank case together, and removed the wheel. It seems like the main spindle...

Cody, I realize this is an old thread, but wanted to ask about something that hasn't been covered in the discussion. You mention that you reworked the chuck and also straightened the shaft under the...
