Members DanishMan Posted September 17, 2019 Members Report Posted September 17, 2019 Hi Katit Great to look your project to move ahead. I am about to take an old skiving machine apart and repaint it. Last year I tried to remove the main shaft of another machine, and it ended in disaster. You mentioned earlier in this thread, that it was tricky to remove the main shaft. What was the tricky part for you? Cheers DanishMan Quote

My post on page 1 from March 3 shows broken part (I had to order new one). This "fork" looking piece I thought it's pressed in but it's actually threaded. I tried to press it out and broke it. Other than that - there is no problem to remove it. Unscrew cap, then unscrew this "fork". I think one of them is left-hand threads Quote
Members DanishMan Posted January 13, 2020 Members Report Posted January 13, 2020 Good job. I have two old skivers, that I will start working on soon. Could you please tell me, how you removed the knife shaft with all the parts (worm wheel etc) Brgds DanishMan Quote
Members katit Posted September 4, 2020 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2020 Never finished a project, now 2 skivers for sale here. Didn't list in anywhere else, leatherworker members get a first dib. Quote
