If in no huge hurry , my son will be back down at Christmas . He is in the heart of Toronto under the CN Tower . I have Thomson rod and linear bearings stashed thru out my premises . I'll gladly send it up with him next month .I'm looking for a hardened shaft to be used with a linear bearing, ~1m long 16mm diameter would be ideal, flexible on the diameter. Shipping from USA is probably prohibitive weight wise.
Doesn't everyone?I have Thomson rod and linear bearings stashed thru out my premises .
Not sure Jeff . But we own Thomson industries and we use tons of the stuff . The lines I pulled out in June and broke down were loaded with linear bearings and slides , DROs and scales . 80/20 out the arse here also .Doesn't everyone?
Give https://www.bearingscanada.com/ a try. Shipping from US is generally extortionist regardless of weight.I'm looking for a hardened shaft to be used with a linear bearing, ~1m long 16mm diameter would be ideal, flexible on the diameter. Shipping from USA is probably prohibitive weight wise.
If you have something laying around you shop please let me know
I’m a patient fellow, more projects than time, I will focus on the mounting brackets for the bearings and my lathe project.
