doubt that is a good idea, the actual cost of the bearing races is small, they

<P>We are trying to raise money to rehang the ring of 10 at Beccles, Suffolk, on
ball bearings. One of the things suggested for raising money was "Buy a
Bearing". Could somebody either give me an indication or point me in the right
direction for finding out the price of ball races used for such a job. The bells
range in weight between 6cwt and 25cwt. Obviously the cases and labour will add
more expense but I would just like to know the basic price of one
bearing.<BR><BR>JBP<BR><BR></P></DIV><!-- end group email --><pre style="white-space:normal">SELEX Galileo Ltd<br>Registered Office: Sigma House, Christopher Martin Road, Basildon, Essex SS14 3EL<br>A company registered in England & Wales.
