Pete, 

    If you don't know have the know how or the tools to fix it, one
possibility is to contact one of the local farm equipment dealers. They can
give you the name of a mobile mechanic who is used to repairing farm
equipment, and this time of year would appreciate a job inside where it is
warm as a "fill in" for a slack day.

Subject: [Rockhounds] Dead rock saw

My old Highland Park model E4 rock saw finally bit the dust.  The  
bearings seized up.  I managed to get the shaft block off the box,  
but can't seem to take it apart.  Not sure I could replace the  
bearings anyway....

Anyone have a spare shaft block to sell?  A spare saw?  Do I have any  
other options?

Thanks,
Pete Richards
