[QUOTE="Dihusky, post: 423460, member: 10304"] Hall Xtra Cadet. Came as a good kit from a guy who was giving the game away. Cheater was stuck solid, so went over the machine, freed up the cheater and lubed, then found the main spindle bearings were knackered so replaced them and the machine now purrrrrrs. She's loving it!! I'm taking the Imahashi out of service so I can put a variable speed DC motor on it and alter the spindle setup a bit, while that's happening and the new parts being machined I might try and have a play with the Hall as well, but I am not liking my chances :mad: Oh well... as they say..'Happy wife, happy life' [/QUOTE]
