Go to Post They see us come into school looking like zombies, and they know that some people start smelling like chain lube and such...but for the most part, they don't realize that for a lot of us, there is a deep commitment to our team that we do a very large amount of work for that team. - JakeGallagher [more]

[FTC]: Bearings and Mounts

Rookie Coach Alert!

Checking to see if I understand this...

Bearings like these:
http://www.servocity.com/html/flange..._bearings.html


are legal by <R05>.L, which states:
"... In general, COTS are not permitted with the following exceptions: Bearings of any type and material. Including bushings, roller bearings, etc."

but a bearing mount like these (see Fig 4):
http://www.servocity.com/html/90o_hu...__545408_.html


are NOT legal because of rule <R04>.D, which states:
"Materials in the form of angle, channel, tubing, sheet, film, blocks, etc. are allowed but these same shapes with post machined features (holes, slots, etc.) are considered to be Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) and are constrained by Rule <R05>."

Do I have that right? If so, I need to fabricate a bearing mount from raw stock?
