Bob,
I promise to take some good photos.
Im thinking about painting the 1932 Junior black, instead of the SB grey, and baking the painted parts.
i have baked black painted parts before and they turn out looking like porcelain. The polished metal really has a nice contrast with the black color.

Did you take some photos?
That sounds like a good bearing. Some machinists are recommending aluminum bronze, as well.
