Hello Rod,

Attached is a drawing of the pivot of the brazilian "Sucuri"
by Eduardo LP jr. which shows the dimensions and the housing
cross section.

And here are the links to some pictures:

The first couple shows the pivot of the "Worm" by Marc Hübner
(Swiss Made!):

The second couple shows my own humble work:

If the pictures don't speak for themselves, feel free to ask
questions ...

Cheers,
Jürgen.

Jurgen: I have a set of wheel bearings and a lathe in my garage. I've
been trying to come up with a way to use the wheel bearings in a
pivot. I'd like to be able to adjust the axial  load on the bearings,
and to be able to re-grease the bearings occasionally.

Can you provide any details on how you did this, please? Of course
pictures would be great. Thanks.
