Glue? ShopSmith has gone back to recommending glue on the tires?

Can I glue my orange tires on?

What Agale said. It appears from the picture that you need an inexpensive drift pin punch set. Like this: http://www.harborfreight.com/8-piece-pu ... 93424.html

Select the largest punch that will fit into the hole and tap out the roll pin.

I just want to say "Thank You". This thread seems to have fixed a problem that has had me flummoxed for weeks. My faithful old band saw is now back in service. As was said, use moderation. A bit of 1/2" thin wall conduit was plenty strong enough to do the job for me.
