Hi Doc I have read your rebuild of the Doall multiple times...it has been a great help. I hope your saw is still working for you.
I recently posted about rebuilding a Doall 16 SFP. My saw was not in good shape when I got it and some of the parts that appear ok don’t seem to be assembled as I would have thought. In particular the Reeves pulleys...I don’t know if the assembly is installed correctly. One end is flush the other end is inset. Which end faces the snap ring is the question. Also the shaft these pulleys ride on has an elongated hole on the end with the snap ring and there is a setscrew in the casting at a location that would go into this elongated hole but mine did not have the setscrew tightened so the shaft was free to spin. Does the setscrew go into this elongated hole or against the shaft? Can I get pics of your assembly installed? Thx much Dan Brubaker
