I am thinking of ways to whittle them little things to a semi round after
the Jb Weld.... Aside from being funny....
Just exactly how do they Make a Bearing.... Curious and honest question....
( No I don't want to make my own..)
I gave up.... and Made an off Balance Mandrel with adjustable belt tension
and Multi speed pulleys to control the Ips of Vibration to the Exact
Level... ( still have to get the Pulley's monday but that is the Plan ) and
it's got a set of throw wieghts that go with it... to add or subtract from
the total hit... and industrial Bearings with Real Grease fitting's....
I hate it when you Just gotta quit cobbling and do something right....
Keith ( Why Yes My first call in the Morning is going to be to Vibco for a
REAL Vibrator.... )
