I wasn't sure what i was looking at for a moment either. They're face-mount bearings, the bearing is inside an outer case that screws down to a surface so that a shaft can go in perpendicular to the surface. These are just all arranged into stars for appearance's sake.

Slightly off topic, but we went to Allan Steel and Supply Co. this past week to pick up some aluminum. Allan told us how some team from San Jose who started with a c had come in and bought $5000 worth of aluminum. Cory, you must be machining your heart out right now.

I'm fairly sure that's not us. We typically use a different aluminum supplier.

We buy the vast majority of our Al from Coast Aluminum as it's much cheaper (and delivered for free), so that definitely wasn't us.
