[22:30:36] <katsmeow> what about them?
[22:30:52] <Jymmm> If you give bearing specs, you must need a bearing
[22:31:06] <katsmeow> i was not aware of that
[22:31:33] <katsmeow> i honestly thought i was giving the specs so people wold know such a bearing existed
[22:31:36] <Jymmm> ...or you're bragging because you made one =)
[22:31:56] <katsmeow> no, i found i can get them for 50 cents each tho
