Re: Alternate Source for 1/2" Flanged Hex Bearings

They said they found ~100 of these bearings from their sources.

Thanks also to others who've offered to share parts via PM!

R.C. - looking forward to it!
I just receive a call from Marty at Weimer Bearing. Unfortunately, the bearings they received in from their suppliers were mislabeled - they are actually ROUND, not hex. For any who ordered from them, expect a call from Marty. I of course cancelled our order.

Anyway, I am definitely interesting in purchasing/trading for any spare stock of hex bearings teams may have handy. Please PM me if you want to deal!
