Re: shaft and bushing for the B/C change gears
I should be more specific. In addition to suggestions to keep it from happening again, are there any recommendations for non-destructive ways of separating the stuck bushing from the shaft?

Re: Moments of Terror in Machining
I bought my grinder from HF and it has no vibration, the wheels seem balanced fine! It does get warm after using it awhile; not surprising when I live in Tucson, AZ where summer temperatures are 110F
