Here is an update for the 9 inch bosch grinder i asked for yalls help and you gave it and i thank each and everyone of you that commented on my other Bosch post. i edited up being one lucky duck and finding a tool repair guy 30 mins away and offered to do it for $30.00 to take the old one out and give me a new one and put it in.The grinder its self is running hella good havent had time to buy a wheel for it and i still need to build a guard for it and i decided to include some pictures of it and will post a video on my youtube channel when the guard is finished.A Little background on this grinder my grandfather worked for a cement company years ago and they were going to throw it away but he saved it and used it for different things and years latter i take it home to clean little did i know he was going to give it to me and i did offer him money but he wouldn't take it and all together in this restoration i have around 25 hours and i am glad nothing is broke because i can't find this model anywhere i even email and talked to Bosch and looked all over .i am guessing this grinder is about 35 to 40 years old and proudly made in Germany

Hi Guys I have a Older Bosch Grinder That I Was In The process of putting back together .As I was I was Spinned the bearing and it fell apart. I need Your guys help to know what should i do . i have alright talked to bosch about it and they dont carry the part and i have tryed to take off the middle of the bearing as u can see in the picture it is infront of the fan and i am not able to take it off and have tryed some to put the bearing balls and outer bearing housing back on but can never get all of the balls back in. i was wondering if there is a way that i can shove all the bearings back in at once .

If you haven't tryed these bits yet you are missing out . They are $20.00 at home depot and they were on sale on Christmas time for $10.00 . But any way I have used them a lot with my makita impact driver , 1/2 corded makita drill and cordless 1/2 makita drill and they are amazing.They have the numbers painted white on them but also it is carved in them to so when it wears out you can still tell . The bit extender has two alan key screws and the set comes with a Alan key too ! The most heavy duty work I have done was a railroad tie to 1/2 pine and all sorts of thickness. Starting to sound like a salesman lol anyway highly recommended bits 10 piece set (: Here is the link to them on home depot http://www.homedepot.com/p/Bosch-Daredevil-Spade-Bit-Set-10-Pieces-DSB5010/203274429 I can't find the exact same set but here is closest without the bit extender it is extra for it you have to buy it alone.

Makita 2401b 10inch mitersaw before and after
in Power Tools
Posted
My makita 10inch mitersaw that i recently got at a publicsurplus auction for 27.35 and it was in a little bit of ruff shape and cord was very bad and needed to be greased and cleaned very well.I have included only two before and the rest are after i was done with it. i also made a base so i dont ruin the cast iron one. i tore the saw completly apart and clean everything .There are some a couple videos on my youtube channel which ishttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv5UsmoaOKv06LfOdEE91kA if you would like to check them out. i repainted the base and the arm parts and the guard .also on the guard was a crack from somebody tightened the screw down to hard.So i got jb weld and a pair of vise grips and fixed it . Then i painted the guard after the glue dry and put a new makita sticker on it. This saw is anywhere from 1983 to 87 this model was made .total time spent cleaning the parts and painting i would say 12 to 15 hours.
