  1. Jim..I need help removing old wheels on an ULT 2 (new to me) to replace them.  I don't want to force them(might be original)and break something...any direction is appreciated.-Thanks!

      I hope not! ....I agree with the horizontal being problematic...logically I don't perceive it as ideal due to the forces involved...Bliss/Breeze...nice linear type set ups...a later project for me!

      Again-Thanks for your input-mail

      Jim-Thanks for the reply-Yes it is an oldie..When I try to turn the bolt both bolts turn...I wasn't sure if using brut strength would mess anything up.  There is a sleeve and a bushing with a set screw-I guess the bushing is setting the sleeve-but again I'm a little shy to start disassembling things that do not need to be undone.  I was going to try some nylon wheels on the machine.  I ended up having to build a table from slot aluminum b/c I couldn't get the wooden table around the corner to get to my basement. I have put teflon rail on with Stainless steel wheels on the lower carriage..I'l. see how that works-if not I'll put on a SS rail.  I'm also toying with making bliss like wheels using an aluminum gusset and SS bearings-but that's later down the road. Edge riders look nice but a little pricey for now. I do have the vertical wheel set up.-I appreciate your help-!!!-Gail
