Thank you, very imformative. I just bought a 12 year old 1642. andI am very excited about the upgrade in lathes for me!

I had just for a set of these and was having some trouble with them being a little grabby on some white oak (they did fine on cherry). I had the top of the tool level rather than down a little - like a negative rake scraper. I when out and tried them after watching your video and they worked great with no tear out! Great video! Thanks

Thank you Jim for sharing an exceptional video on exactly what I needed. My spindle lock collar cracked and fell off after attempting to remove a very stuck chuck. Your step by step approach has given me the confidence and courage to attempt the replacement. You also gave me the thought to take the shaft with the stuck oneway chuck to an automotive repair in the hopes they can apply the necessary torque needed to loosen it before putting it all back together.

thanks for your video great info

I’m glad it was helpful. My health hasn’t been good however it’s getting better finally.

Hope you're doing well. And reading comments. Noticed some play in my little Jet and wanted to review before I went into it. I had taken apart a Vicmarc many years ago to check those awesome tapered bearings (dumb move; turned out the "clicking" was a loose grub screw on the pully -- rookie mistake). Your excellent and and complete tutorial gave me the right idea for the jet. Not a separate nut for tension -- the hand wheel serves for that. Loosen the grub screw and some careful tightening. Little machine now hums away. It had sat on a floor for years with a bit of shameful abuse. Now I have a use for it and it is working perfectly. I will echo the appreciation repeated many times here for a generous and thorough walk-through. Rare in this medium. Hope things are well with you. Greg

Thank you for this video! Hope all is well!

Excellent little video, extremely practical, and very well illustrated.

Very well done! The shots where you turned the wood by hand were great for showing the proper angles.

What is the size of your handle on this tool? Thanks

Wanted to see you do something with the skew.

Jim, I am so glad that this video both part 1 and part 2 were still being broadcasted. You have helped me tremendously with both expert guidance and insightful and helpful hints. Thanks so much for your contribution to the woodturning society. John von

excelente demonstração de como usar o spindle gouge, Parabens

I tell my students to consider a piece of work put into a pillar drill. Where then to put the toolrest and present the tool. They usually get what you are teaching quickley. Good video.

Just replaced the bearings in my 3520 b. Thank you for the video!

There's probably a reason you came up first excellent video and a natural teacher thank you sir

Thank you for posting this video. Just completed the project on my Jet and everything went smoothly thanks to your instruction. Now to rebuild the live center and then all will be good.

Just completed the repair. Your video was invaluable. Would not have attempted it otherwise. I found it easier to tighten the rear interior stop collar by removing the rear spindle lock and accessing the set screw through the hole in the headstock. This allowed me to set the gap and tighten the screw in one operation (without having to slide the spindle back and forth.) Great video! Thanks!

Excellent! Thank you so much for sharing this. I’ve picked up a wobble on my Jet 1642 and was intimidated by the needed fix. I’m ready to give it a shot after watching your video. Thank you.

I really can't say enough good things about this project. This is a great way for an average Joe like me to accurately make these detail tools without having a machine shop in the garage. I'm getting some stock and coupling nut very soon.

Excellent teaching style. Thank you. I believe I can apply these same principles to my 3520B. I look forward to watching your other videos as I have subscribed to your channel.

Very good video. Most folks do say get the rest as close as possible, but they leave the part about making sure the bevel is not on (or as you say "too near") the rest. ABC makes a lot of sense, but I wouldn't go so far as saying "always". As you know, there are times when the first part of the tool entering the wood is a point (or end of a tool, such as a spindle or bowl gouge). Everyone is familiar with "skating" when doing so, but there's only AC without the B in that case.

Thank you! I am getting ready to do this!

had to work on the bearing housings with a small drum sander in a portable drill to get a sliding fit of the bearings in the housing. Then all went well.

Thanks you very much Jim for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience with the rest of us. I just changed the bearings and belt on my 1642 today with your able assistance and everything went very smoothly, There were several thing I never would have known without this video. It took away any nervousness and gave me the complete confidence to complete the job successfully. My lathe runs like new now!

Air gun just blow the price off while the lathe is running

I enjoied very much your excellent video and explanation on how to repair the ball bearings I have a 3520 powermatic lathe statted making noise so I want to replace the bearings which brand do you recomend and where to buy best regards Maico

I thought I was the only one that used a clth instead of a paper towel! Everybody forgets that we don't ever clean our glasses with a paper towel because the wood fibers in the paper towel will scratch our glasses. Why put scratches in a nice finish that we just sanded smooth?

Just replaced both bearings! A clear, informative and easy to follow video. So great it's in real time. Thank you so much for making this video.

Thanks so much for you hard work on this video. My 1642 doesn't need bearings yet, but I know I can do it now! Great job.

Shop vacuum hose about 3 inches from work peice works for me I put a paper towel around filter with rubber bands easier to clean up Thanks for sharing also put a couple drops of dish soap in your bottle old time body man told me that

Excellent! Thank you. This is exactly what I was needing to clarify tool height.

Thanks! You have no idea how many videos I watched that failed to adequately explain the method of determining the ideal rest height for more than just one specific type of tool or cut. This one covers a range of situations, some of which have bugged me for a while.

Can you do a video on. Urn>?

Pastor, nice to see you doing a video. Good information....a topic I neglect but with your inspiration I shall change. How have you been? I do wonder if you are still doing a bit of turning. I have seen you on FB, (I think). Cheryle and I moved to Billings, Mt. All is well here. Had to build a new shop. Regards Sam Angelo

I.m new to wood turning and this was a very valuable and EXCELLENT vido

Wish you had shown the bevels on the tools before you used them.

GREAT review JIm. I'm ordering some of his tools right now. Thanks for the clarity of the handles.

ok! What about skew?

good video.

Thank you. You had a bearing for Jet 1221, do you know the replacement bearing number for that bearing? Mine is bad. Thanks again.

What number is the back bearing. You said 6207 for the front one. Are they both the same? Thank you. Gre as t video.

Skill, knowledge and experience. Thank you very much for posting this. It makes life easier 👍🤔❗️💪

Great job

Thank you very much Jim, after watching this video I have been able to change the bearings on my jet 1642, without I do not think it would have happened. you have saved my a lot of money, once again many thanks from a wood turner in West Yorkshire England.

Just bought a Nova G3. You answered all my questions about cleaning. Thanks much!

Watched it a couple of times, there is a lot of good information and a great approach for a beginner like me, Well done. I don't use the skew on acrylic yet, when it slips, it is awful so I have been using carbide and you are spot on, easy does it with VERY LITTLE pressure. Super finishing ideas as well.

Jim I have PM 3520B. This video is a nice step by step instruction. Extremely helpful. Thank You!

Great explanation of the different chucks and great photography by Trinity. I bought a Delta LA 200, Type I, at a garage sale with most of parts missing. The lathe chuck being one of them. For a week-end turner can you recommend one. Thanks

Welcome back Jim.Hope you are doing better.I have a bother who lives there in RockSprings as well.
