Im going to put this back together and i was to be sure i understand the order the bearings are to be installed. 1-On the non electric side (fan side) a thin washer is slipped over the shaft then the inner race of the bearing is pressed onto the rotor then the outer bearing is pressed onto the...

Belt sander paint colors. The sanders original color was a blue. Like a blue you'd see in a machine shop. At some point everything was painted red. And I mean everything. The sander, the motor, every nut, bolt, and screw. If I would have had the blue paint I might have restored it to its...

You're referring to the waterproof version correct? It is lined with glue. While if found slightly larger than 3 inches it would absolutely work. I cannot locate a "thick" version as you mention but the thickness is not a crucial property as I've read others using the innertube with no issues...

I was away from the shop & wanted to buy the tape. I got 3/16. It was a good match. 3" shrink tube will work. Its thin, but I bet it will work. Its rather expensive though.

Anyone know the width of these stripes? Mine was in too bad of shape to read. I had to paint the shield and I'd like to repaint the stripes in a suttle shade. this is a stock image that matches mine.

This is the sander

The drive and idle rollers on the sander were in bad shape. Craftsman Model 103.0803 Each needed new rubber and the bushings on the ends wiggled in their housing. They are crimped into the roller and cannot be replaced. I dont know how it affected the sanders use as I never really had an issue...

The weather has improved so some paint was applied to the motor parts and a few from the sander. I like using the hammered finish on metal as it covers up most of the imperfections. The best application method is with a spray gun. The mist from the can is to fine to get that dented look. You...

While waiting for the weather to improve i brushed up on my publishing skills. The most time consuming details were the font choice and re-creating the shape around the logo.

Neat!

While I was cleaning it up I concluded that the motor and tool were poorly stored but also hardly used. The bearings on the motor and the bushings on the sander were in amazing condition for its age. Its raining today so I cannot finish painting. In about a week (after the paint cures) I'll...

Just want to point out the range on the sardine cap is 70-95uf. My reading is 114uf.

No. A belt sander. So what would be a good reading? And a replacement if I should need one. This was suggested by my father. 130-156uf

Reading 114uf (microfarads)

Cap.

I believe it does.

Oh wow. Its special. Flat type. Not made anymore. I mean i could get a round style but is it possible to test it first?

Start resistance = 15 Run resistance = 1.5 Sum across the two 16.3 No shorts to ground.

I had it re-varnishd this morning. I did not know how to test the stator before I took it in. So I found a better diagram. This fellas motor wires had better color where mine had just faded wires. From what I understand each winding makes a complete trip from (LINE TO NEUTRAL) Beginning with a...

Yes. Thats right. I understand now. We are making sure that the two windings are not shorted to one another. Then also that each winding is not shorted to the frame of the stator. Thank you "sparkness" I have learned a great deal.
