As
to launching with no bearing buddy, Cut a coke can in 1/2 and it slips
right over the hub. Put a piece of duct tape around if you want even
more
protection.

Ooo.., good idea. I needed something to protect my assembled hub from dirt
and the like. I will try the soda can. Make sure it's empty before
cutting?




Years ago, some buddies and I were in a Wal-mart type store, and there was a
pallet of cases of soda cans that were wrapped in plastic. One of the guys
wanted a case, so I whipped out the knife. and sliced the plastic across the
length of the pallet. My pocket knife is always very sharp. Hate dull
knives. I must have sliced 15 cans of soda. 7-up spraying every which
way. We casually left the scene of the can massacre.
