Would it work to spray some WD40 in the air connection to the spindle, and apply some air pressure to it? Allow it to "soak" for a few days with pressure? Just a thought, it may not be a recommended procedure, though.
hello..i have purchased a Herbert Churchill Universal Cylindrical Grinding machine BX 2 series.This machine has been lying idle since the past 4 years and now i need to recondition the whole machine.It has an air bearing spindle which is jammed and i need help on disassembling and assembling the machine.I stay in India and if there is any possible way i could get some information in the form of text or contacting someone for the maintainance of the machine it would be highly appreciated.If someone could send me a link to a site which provides help in conventional machines or if i can get in touch with somebody who can help me out..!!

First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
