It's nice when this hobby really helps you. I slipped out of work to pick up my Lenco oilite bearings, and got talking to the guy at the bearing shop about a problem I had at work - what I needed I said, was a very large oilite bearing for a 10 Ton boom that has to be swung out with just a small winch from the side of an oil rig. And he introduced me to 'Slew Rings' - very large diameter ball races, made just for this purpose, crane jibs and the like. So I have the solution, thinks "Thanks to Lenco"

at last finally got it going - listening right now (Candi Stanton), though bearings and idler remain unchanged. Beautiful live sound, specially with daiwoks Midas touch. Not tweaked anything yet - but really pleased. decoupled bearing works fine, just eneough clearance, and seems oil tight, though had a small flood when dropped platter on, cos forgot to shrink the heat shrink
