Thanks! Appreciate the tweak. But someone not paying attention or not familiar with bearings (guilty as charged on both counts ;) ) could read that as all 6202 bearings have a 5/8" I.D. Maybe something like "Note: make sure 5/8" I.D., not 15mm"

Cheers!

Since Bucksaw is no longer available, and if no one objects I'll extract the relevant posts from this thread and start a new one with the data organized both by part# and size. I believe default searches will show the most recent thread first and perhaps we can get a link into the Everything Mark 5 / V - Technical info, documentation, links thread.

The thread will start with a few place holder posts for the re-organized data followed by the original posts for background. Hopefully you guys will proofread my work.

Check Everett's Google drive. I believe he has already done that.

I just checked. He has a folder on his drive called "Bearings". It is worth checking before you go to all the time and trouble to recreate what has already been done.

I did find that and don't see a need to go further. There is a chart at the end of the ShopSmith Bearings Guide with great detail, found at this link:

Perhaps a link can be added upthread or to the Everything Mark 5/V thread to point people there faster.
