Had to replace some bearings on my roller Harrow this morning. Had to make a bearing driver to install them. Just used some scrap out of my iron pile. Works pretty darn good!

I don't know how anyone can survive with out an iron pile, use lumber pile, even scrap drywall. I have a building I call my mini Menards warehouse where I store many things. My basement stores all my electric wire, switches, outlets, used circuit breakers. Another room in basement stores all my used paints, brushes, drywall tools.
A country boy knows how to survive.

I have all that in various places and the wife keeps threatening to have all my stuff hauled to the dump. I'm afraid to leave anymore cause she might do it. Wish I had a bigger iron pile.

Anymore I go to the scrap yards and get stuff. One time I hauled a pickup load of old stuff, brake rotors, etc. figuring I had about 50 bux worth of iron. Drove around to unload and saw a bunch of other stuff I wanted. Pulled back across the scale, went in, and only got a check for $1.68. Those manufacturing companies will go dump all their scraps, shorts, cutouts, etc. and it is usually new steel. Just right for welding projects.
 


I have pulled sleeves on a few different motors. I bought a ten inch long fine threaded 7/8 bolt and pulled the rest of it each time out of the scrap pile.
