Grizzly has a sale on the Shelix cutterheads. I know they retrofit well for their jointers, but I have an 8" Bridgewood and they do have a "generic" Shelix cutterhead for it.
But I have read stories where getting the bearings onto the new cutterhead has been a bear for some folks. I would imagine due to it's being generic and different jointer bearings varying slightly in size. At least this is what I get out of what I've read.
Does anyone have any experience retrofitting a Shelix cutterhead onto non-Grizzly jointers?
Thanks in advance,
Mitch Trager
