post number 49
Whoa! Look at the beautiful knurling on the upper race. If this race was a movie, its beauty would bring a tear to my eye.
four sets of brand new sears neck cups and races! They are made out of 8620 and heat treated for the long haul. I will send them off to get nickel plated next week!

pete,
ReplyDeleteI was worried about your well being since you haven't commented in a while. Glad you are ok. I had the neck cups made by one of my friends on his cnc lathe. It is really expensive to just make one set, so I am making some extra ones, the five frames that I am reproducing will need them too! Hope all is well in sunny california
best,
