[Bell Historians] Ball races

[Bickerton, Roderic (SELEX GALILEO, UK)]

They will probably need turning down to the next available bearing size,
so a bit of ovality wont matter, provided there is enough metal left to
take the load.
If not then as has been pointed out, the viability of re using
headstocks becomes questionable. 

I do not work Wednesday Thursday or Friday.
Please forward to rodbic at u2TQJviQHjwsLd_59epwx3O26J1fINWBLq4tf41ji2l-qL7gewtROBMZ5lJUk-dGZKqpVs_wR9MgIA.yahoo.invalid as well as my work email if you
want me to see it on these days. Do not send anything classified to
rodbic at u2TQJviQHjwsLd_59epwx3O26J1fINWBLq4tf41ji2l-qL7gewtROBMZ5lJUk-dGZKqpVs_wR9MgIA.yahoo.invalid

They are still on plain bearings of Taylors, vintage 1909. The gudgeons
will definitely need replacing as some of them are distinctly oval!

Clean the old bearings up, paint and polish them and you will have a
small contribution to the whole project.

Good luck
