Of course you did. A quick Google of your username and bandsawparts.com shows you that you have 85 matches across multiple forums? That a lot of posts pointing people to a specific website. Are you affiliated with them?

The only reason this thread became active was another spammer posted to it.

IMHO, I thought for a while the poster I was replying to and another poster are probably the same person. Also, there was another 3 or 4 posters at the same time the moderator removed. All point to the same group of bandsaw websites. Someone called him out as a spammer earlier and as we know there really is no honor in being a spammer.

Either they are the most gung ho group of bandsaw fans (doubtful) or they have registered across the web with the same username always pointing to the same sites. Therefore, my offer is to follow-up their posts with a message that I'll never use those sites because they engage in deceptive, spamming practices which we saw when the 3 or 4 other people were removed by the moderator.

Feel free to google our Boston friend and the website he recommends on and you'll find matches on woodworking, rcgroups, scrollsawer, helpowl, routerforums, homemachinist, lumberjocks, practicalmachist, ask, woodworkingforums, bajohangout.

I'll call that a spammer

That's a whole lot of pointing people to one website that sells products.

Not sure if you need a blow by blow detail, but here goes.
I did this during a complete breakdown and cleaning of the band saw. I removed the table for better access to the parts. You have removed the saw blade.
Remove the bracket part # 112 and drive sleeve part # 52.

Now loosen screw # 30 and turn the retaining clip so the bearing and wheel can be removed. Now strike the shaft from the driven side with a soft mallet or wood block and push out the wheel. The wheel, shaft, and bearing (part # 29) are one unit and not designed to be separated.

I clamped the wheel(s) in my woodworkers vise to hold the wheel while I removed the old tire and adhesive and worked the new tire onto the wheel(s)
