Hi, I would like to hear from people that have replaced the bearings in the x2 mini mill. Do I need any special tools, presses etc. If you have done this upgrade I would like to know. Thanks in advance.
 
Well I know I was able to get new bearings on a new spindle with just a propane torch, and I spun the spindle on the lathe and hit it with 220 to 600 grit sand paper.

As far as pulling a bearing off the spindle I am not sure if you would need to use and arbor press or what.
