Shopsmith Saw Arbor Set Screw (222458)
Moderators: HopefulSSer, admin
Recently read a tip in Home Shop Machinist maggy suggesting you could drill a small cross hole in a set screw and insert a piece of weed trimmer plastic cable if you "must" have a vibration resistant screw and the stores are all closed and the dog ate your Loctite blue thread locker.
Never tried it ............yet!

One of the purposes(result?) of teflon tape is to reduce thread friction.benush26 wrote:Just wondering and sort of within the scope...
If you had a set screw that was working loose, could you use a small piece of Teflon pipe thread tape? Would if give enough resistance and take up enough space to keep the set screw in place? Not any residue to contend with.

It might but I would use something like finger nail polish as a temporary fix before I would try teflon tape.benush26 wrote:Just wondering and sort of within the scope...

Shopsmith Saw Arbor Set Screw (222458)
This post is about more than just 222458 but it is about set screws.
I continue to gather information related to "set screws" and to further verify that already posted. This is my latest contribution to the list of set screws used by Shopsmith. There are changes and additions.
[ATTACH]25470[/ATTACH]
The 5/16"-18x3/8" set screws (222460) are provided in the Help Kit and they do have the nylon patch.
I have found no 5/16"-18-1/4" set screws identified as having the nylon patch. I read this to mean that Shopsmith does not believe the patch is necessary for use in the various arbors.
There are still a few that I have not verified. These are so indicated on this chart.

Nice compilation Dusty.
I had a problem with the font size here I couldn't see it all it ran off the page.
I reduced the font size and margins... deleted a couple blank rows so it all fit on one page
I know they were grouped nicely but I liked one page better, then made a pdf.

My wife is an Office manager and is a wiz at MS Office but she's sleeping so this was my quick fix.
I put it her in case anyone else has problem seeing it all.

Convert to PDF. I didn't know you could do that without special software. Aah but you can't. Well, you can if you have all of the latest and greatest but I don't. I have Word 2003 and the MS conversion requires Word 2007 or Office 2007. Furthermore, I don't need to do this often enough to get that software.
The free downloads that are available I don't use much anymore. I believe that I have been burned big time by some of those free downloads.

I don't use it much any more. There are some really cheap converters out there but
they din't have all the features that I needed like linking the table of contents to
specific places within, watermarking , password protecting etc.

+1 on PDF995 -- I used it for many years to create PDF's, and still do sometimes. I did eventually shell out the $9.95 to make the ads go away.videobear wrote:The free PDF995 software is safe to download and use, and will do a great job of making .pdf versions of documents.
On the recommendation of our IT manager, I'm now using Nitro reader, and I like it even better.
