Hi Jan, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I'm having whilst scraping my bearings? Initially I had full contact at the top of the bearing sides along the full length of each bearing but with no contact along the bottom or further down the sides. At this point the shaft felt nice and tight with no play. Lightly scraping the tops to increase the contact lower down resulted in slight side to side play in the shaft and very little contact at the tops. If I further scrape the lower areas with the goal of increasing the contact at the tops of the wall this play becomes worse. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks
@@TheOnlyMosesMalone It may be that the flats where the 2 bearinng laves meet are too high. In other words, you will have to lower this area also so that the "full/enveloping circle" is smaller
I can't make a ball bearing, but I can make a plain bearing. After the zombie apocalypse, that's the construction I'll be making for all the gunsmiths.
am hamza from algeria I bay a lathe metal myford super 7 nember serial so 6184 I want to restoration of it if can you help me is good experience for me and your experience
I will do what I can. There is much information to be found online, for example if you go the Facebook Myford group or the forums under Model Engineering Workshop pages www.model-engineer.co.uk/ If you want to contact me directly I am available on Messenger under my name
Thanks for making this excellent video Jan. I'm attempting to scrape my bearings at the moment and this is perfect for reference.
You're welcome. Thnks for the nice comment. Glad that the video is useful.

@@jansverrehaugjord9934 Thanks Jan, I'll have a look at this.
Thank for all the very useful info. Which I couldn't get from Myford.
You're welcome! Nice that it can be of use to others as well. Good luck on the bearing scraping!
