I am mounting the bearings using the weldment from Randy's workshop.
Has anyone used this? How are the bearings suppose to stay fixed in place.
The nut on the shaft and the stator will prevent the shaft and bearing from
going from left to right, but what stops the left bearing from sliding out to
the left? I am thinking about cutting a rectangular piece of steel and
fastening it between two pairs of bolts to "lock" the bearing into place.
