Usagi Electric | Reviving 65 Year Old Bearings @UsagiElectric | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 18 hours ago.
In the previous episode, we brought up AC on the machine for the first time in who knows how many decades, and it went amazing. We confirmed that we have a good clock track and a good timing track on the drum. But, we also confirmed that none of the cooling fans were happy and the drum itself was grumbly. So, today, let’s pull those fans out, revive the bearings in them, then pull the drum out and try to get the bearings in it happier as well.
