A few weeks ago I received my Rockler bearing which I immediately disassembled as I intend to replace the Ball Bearings with Acetal Bearings.
Daniel, asks me on an almost daily basis what parts have come for R2? and more specifically whether the frame has come (I keep telling him that its going to be a long time for that one still) Anyway, He really wants to help and at this point there hasn't been anything for him to do, so I decided to have him help me reassemble the Rockler. Problem is, Although I have the Acetal Bearings, I havent cleaned the grease out of the bearing yet. So we reassembled it anyway...with the same ball bearings I removed previously.

I guess it doesn't count as real progress, but he enjoyed it and felt like he was helping. When it comes time to replace the bearings again with the Acetal bearings, I will probably have him help again. Ill just tell him I changed my mind and want to use different ones.
In other news, I received my utility arms this week. These were a Junkyard find from adam.scott Thanks Adam!
