I now have only 1 Bearing available for delivery in Mid November.

You have pm :)
Hi Darren,
I have answered your PM.
I have just noticed you live in Berkshire, I come from Reading.
I have actually owned one before a few years ago but sold it to fund a snowboarding trip :lol: I only had it a few weeks but it was enough to find out how good it is! I'm now finally in a position to get another :)
Ahh really! I'm not from Berkshire originally but have been here for about 9 years now. Damn that has gone quick :eek: I live just outside Reading in Twyford
OK so Darren has just paid for the last Bearing.
I still have about 10 shafts left which were extra-produced by my toolmakers.
So I can if the interest is still strong enough make up 2 batches of 5 Bearings
After this I think that it will have to be the final hurah.
Hi Folks,
Just a note to those 4 people who are awaiting their Bearing.
The housings have been honed and the shafts fitted.
However I am awaiting the delivery of the ceramic balls from the US very painful!!
I don't know what the speed of overseas postal deliveries are like in the rest of the world, but in Australia they seem to getting slower every month.
It is only a matter of a few hours to set the datum distance and complete them once I get the balls.
No worries Mike,i'm in no rush!
I have just discovered what the problem is with my ceramic balls!!!!!
The web site of the US supplier does not seem to recognise that when when the "country to send to" box
is filled in with a country other than the USA it means that the country might be International!!!!
On this occasion I did not mark "International" so they sent me an email the same day asking for an extra $10.00
which I immediately paid. That's when it all went pear shape. I got confirmation of payment but no one took any notice of it
and the shipment was suspended!!!!!!
It has taken me most of the morning to try to get the ..............people in the US to understand the problem and then I had to pay $10.00 a second time just to get the bloody thing moving.
Now they have realised and accepted my situation and are sending my balls by fast courier which is good of them I guess.
So I should have them by early next week.
Always a pain when things don't go as planned! Still at least they are on the way now.How long do you estimate it will take to ship once you have the ceramic balls? I will be out the country in a few weeks,so may give alternative postal address!
