Mine also did not work well, I sanded the sides down a little trying to get them to fit, but I have spent more time trying to get them to work right than just making my own in the first place would have been.

Very nice Chris. I have been meaning to get into book matching and box making. Currently, I have just been making bandsaw boxes. Just purchased a slew of blades to experiment with. I also work with relatively small pieces, so I bought a 6" drum sander via Byrne's Model Machines. I am hoping thi...

I'm not sure what's going on, but I have been told for 2 weeks that everything on my order from 2 months ago (during the free shipping special...) is in stock and ready to ship. First, I was told everything was in and that it would ship "in a few days". After "a few days" and no ...

Thank you for the answers and extra information. I did not have much grease that wasn't all dried out available, so I used what I had and it worked its way in, but I think I need a little more. Nothing appears seized up, they appear to roll, but still got a bit of noise. I have a couple more questio...
