Re: Bearings in Sheet Metal
I have seen two cases where flanged FR8s (pressed in 1/8 plate) and flanged FR6s (pressed in 1/16 tubing) have had pretty great success. The most recent application was done with the FR6s for the 973 Hodgepodge Bot. So far, there hasn't been any records of the bearings or tubing failing.
