fucking noise and hygiene engineering aspects get no love
instead you keep getting more folds, more racket, more bullshit (modern engineering).
Dear lord maybe when advanced CNC comes down in price you can actually get real parts instead of injection molded folded metal shit
For me....I have a long history of diving into mechanical stuff that is way over my head.
My old and broken eBay purchased pick and place machine was rather nasty. Many months of fiddling, machining, aligning, testing, breaking, etc....
Just bought 2 wheels for my sack truck today (old tyres had perished). When I put them on, they wouldn't go round. The plastic hubs had flats bulges so the roller bearings wouldn't go round. I wrecked my back getting the wheels back off, and spent 2 hours dremmeling the flats of the hubs. Horrid.
time to upgrade to a mean die grinder 1/4 inch shaft instead of a dremel. It sounds like the wrong tool to use as something as big as a truck wheel.
oh a sack track is a hand cart. In that case its still borderline IMO.
Thanks guys, You are right, but I was worried about eating too much away too quickly and ruining the wheels. In hindsight I was overcautious.
alternative is to beat it in with a sledge hammer and tape the wheel back together
an option for my hand truck lol using some leftover jb weld (hardening as we speak) and stints would be cheaper then buying a damn bearing puller
might be interested in tools like this if you got a job too big for a dremel but not worthwhile for a die grinder investment (don't have one myself yet), but I do have these ...
For one off jobs like this it may be possible to rent one from the nearest tool/hardware store. Many places offer this service. A lot easier (and probably cheaper) than trying to use Dremel for something like this.
they will rent a anemic bearing puller? it would need 3 jaws like 3mm wide
the wheels have little indents for them and they are aluminum hubs.
i suppose i can take a flat bar and drill a hole in it and cut it in half and weld it together behind the wheel so the big bearing puller can be used. or just use a thick flat bar with a flame cut notch in it so it can fit over the wheel and be stiff enough. They fit a bearing inside of the wheel and they require you to pull the entire wheel off so you can bang out the bearing. I kinda have a feeling that the bearing puller will rip out of the aluminum rather then remove the wheel given how fused it looks like it is, so I think I will be forced to go that route or to cut the wheel in half with a sawzall or something
it's built like a complete bastard when I was painting it I had to regrind all their welds (looked like wounds on the top).
i feel like a complete boss though now that I figured out ball bearings are a standard part like resistors. I thought everyone was pretty much custom designed.

They might but that is a bit specialized gear. You are probably better off asking the nearest car mechanic, they are much more likely to have one.
I assumed you were referring to the die grinder (or the weird die grinder like stone that attaches to an angle grinder) rather than the bearing puller. Confusing, lol.
FWIW, a die grinder spins at >2.5x the speed of an angle grinder. This can make a difference as to what you can do with it and the results you can get, along with all the smaller bits you can use it in. (Particularly if using it as a redneck turning tool). Pneumatic die grinders are dirty cheap. But if you want a cheap electric die grinder on a budget, your options are less attractive.
I've the cheap electric die grinder that looks like the generic version of the entry level 1/4 HP Makita. The one that looks exactly like a blue bottle with a black neck. It is a bit underpowered and the motor is unbalanced. The bit spins true in the collet, but the entire neck of the grinder vibrates due to the motor, so it is highly suboptimal with most bits other than cutoff discs. I find a cheap trim router works much better and has plenty of power. A generic (HF or the like) hand/trim router costs about the same as this cheapo die grinder, it has the same collet size (can be had in 1/4" or 6mm), it takes the same bits, and it spins at exactly the same RPM as a die grinder (~ 27-28K rpm). But this cheapo trim router has power for days and the motor is very smooth and balanced. It just doesn't have the reach of the traditionally shaped slender-necked die grinder. So if you want a perfect stubby electric die grinder, you might want to give it a try. Works so well as a "giant dremel" that I have two of them, one setup with a steel guard for cutoff discs, and one for the other bits. I got the one in 6mm, so I can use cheap import carbide burrs and hard points. I don't think they're much good as trim routers, though, due to the shoddy trim router attachments. I would spend more for a trim router.
In the US, branded electric die grinders start at over $100.00 for the really weak Makita one, for some reason. The better part of $200 by the time you get into the full-powered ones. Just not that common of a tool, I guess. You can buy top brand angle grinders for peanuts, in comparison.
i want the milwakee fuel die grinder but it is only suitable for the stones because you don't have RPM adjustment. It will annihilate brushes and nylon
I think at 20,000 RPM it will start to destroy those braided brushes too. Regular brushes are no good on a non adjustable speed grinder unless you wanna feel like your fighting a fucking pissed off porcupine. I imagine at 25k they might just explode.

Seems like most die grinders are not adjustable? Even the expensive ones. Bosch makes one of the only adjustable die grinders that I see for sale, here. But it maxes out at something like 7-8K, so it's a totally different tool from most die grinders.
For a corded grinder, you could use a plug in router speed controller. I don't have one, but I find a regular full on/off foot pedal works, somewhat, with my die grinders, just feathering it and using the inertia of the motor to even things out. I have never used a wire brush in a die grinder, though. I didn't even realize that was a common thing... wire brushes with a 1/4" round shank, at any rpm rating.
Clockwork mechanism full of not only a mix of alive and dead cochroaches, but also essentially had built up a crunchy lubricant that packed every cavity of it from the bugs that got trapped and pulled in between the gear teeth, This mechanism was about the size of a drink can, was generally heated to 40C in a humid atmosphere,
There are smells you cannot un-smell, and this was one of them
The mechanism was bolted together in about 15 layers, so pull it out of the housing, freak out when it starts having small insects come pouring out of the top, then cleaning out the bug goo, unbolt the layer and repeat..
I went home early that day, and no one was going to stop me, I was not happy.
you should put that kind of bullshit into a garbage bag with a bug bomb.
then fucking put it on your bosses desk lol
Yeah, If I could, I would have, Its a programmable Timing Cam assembly from very old manufacturing equipment, you know how it goes, it still works, so no one replaces it.
Jeez that Indiana video was tame as crap, I don't even flinch at the thought of that anymore,
German Cockroach Nymphs for reference, Imagine 80 or so 1cm long cochroaches erupting out of something you just opened
yea I had a invasion like that once from some unknown source (possibly a air conditioner bought from store).
I was hunting cock roaches in my house for 3 days and I deployed
8 bug bombs to flush em out. Happened right during a remodeling too, after i sealed the sheet rock but did not cut away the expansion foam. So I was pulling dead bugs out from under expansion foam (thank god it fucking solidified before this happened). I just fucking came home from work and there was fucking like roaches all over this room. And there was a hole from the room going into the basement.
Thankfully I think the centipedes ate the roaches that I did not kill personally or gas.
New rockwool kicks ass, the walls are fucking sealed super tight with no gaps in em.
It was fucking ridiculous though. I thought maybe a prank even. Like the fucking Sears was not that dirty (in a nice expensive mall) and I beat all over the air conditioner getting it into the house and even ran it for a while with no problems. It was like a day later. I did leave a window open but there are normally no roaches here. And these roaches were dumb and large like they did not know predator avoidance well... but I can't imagine kids threw pet shop food into my window.
