Thanks for answers. The axis really is "black" steel and rather heavily rusted. Wien I changed new grinding wheel it was difficult to loosen the old. If I got it right, there will be also new bearins With the new axis. Plus changing the grinding wheel will be much easier thien.

Hi there
I have an old Tormek, bought second hand. grinding wheel is 250 mm diameter and the body is of steel. I´m wondering about the honing wheel;
i  it's covered by material which seem to be old worn rubber, not in any case leather
ii it´s mounted to the drive wheel using six screws, in new machines there seem to be only three of them.

I want to have a leather covered honing wheel but should I also change the drive wheel?
Then I´m interested what type my machine will be? I have not seen any ID code on it.
