My last batch went earlier this year and demand seemed to dry up in line with interest in the techie.
I currently have 3 members interested in a bearing and have promised to contact them if I decide to make another small batch.
One major issue is the price of new Technics bearings here in the UK due to the fall in the value of the £ against the Euro/Dollar/Yen, last batch they cost £33, today the dealer I used to buy from wants £59.
I'll revisit this and cost my tooling, materials and bearings and let all know if I decide to make another batch.

OK mate. Please keep me in your list. If I manage to steal some time from work, I 'll try to check a few local shops for old stock

Hi Ian, What is the roughly price of the bearing?
Guys
I'm sorry I cant answer questions at the moment.
I have a health issue which must be resolved before I promise to make any more bearings

Hello Ian,
I am also a "senior" and familiar with health issues. I wish you the very best with resolution of your setback and I hope it is of the nature that heals quickly and does not linger.
If you are maintaining a list of customers wanting your Technics bearing, please add me to the group. I have two SL1210 M5G's and from what I have gleaned off the net your bearing is the best.
In good health,
Doug Olsen

Best Regards,
Doug Olsen
