I found this really good video on YT mostly about greasing and replacing bearings in your 788. He is saying the lack of lube and a good quality lube is a down fall to the 788. Have you guys had problems with your bearings? The way he talks if you grease the bearings before they go bad they will last a very long time. Here is a link to the video, it's in four parts and they are long. (Very long).

Love it ,did what he says and got two hard labor of more use .would have got years more but could not press out two bearings.

Kevin get this arbor press from HF. It's better than buying a new scroll saw. The guy in the video tells where you can get the bearings for around $3 each.

 

PS- HF always has a 20% coupon.
