There was someone selling a platter and bearing on here and on the Wam, I suspect that l that's who Dave is ;)
Hence the 'I said I'd buy' bit, sounds more like a reference to a second hand seller.
He still has the bearing for sale.

Sorry, Mike. I don't know what you mean, or what you're referring to as "I said I'd buy it"... Are you trying to say that aniki is Dave Cawley? :scratch:

Aniki ( Dave ? ) has just sold his platter, I just thought it might have been to rchinn.
I thought it was more likely to be a private sale rather than shop sale that rchinn was referring to.
Mind you this is all just theory on my part, and can be confirmed or blown apart once I find out Aniki is actually called, Bert, Tam, Gertrude or Aniki and not Dave lol.
I'm now thinking of just buying Anikis bearing and sending it to rchinn just to get out of this thread lol
I kind of get what you're saying, but sorry, I don't know who rchinn is or what relevance he has to all this... Sorry, I haven't followed the 'story' like you obviously have, so need to learn it from the beginning, as it were.
Marco.
Sorry I should have quoted the post I was referring to.Quote:

I fitted my one in about 20 minutes, and that was only because I hadn't trimmed the solder stubs/tails low enough to avoid touching the bearing housing and had to remove the bearing and refit it. Oh and a few minutes wasted trying to work out why the bearing wasn't spinning. Fitting the platter solved that one lol.
I'm no technician, and if I can managed it then anyone can.
The bearing upgrade is highly recommend.
Cheers! Happy Easter.Quote:
