Love the engineering on those. The carriage bolts all have slots to fit in to keep from turning. They say all you need is a pliers and screwdriver to do anything with them. lol
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number. IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE HELPS YOU, THEN BUY FROM HIM. IT CREATES GOOD KARMA.

The literature says the hardwood bearings are boiled in oil and “will never wear out.” Apparently it’s still covered by factory warranty.
