Trackball question, rusty bearings ?
spystyle:
Hi Randy :)
I just brought the Imperial bearing to my local hardware store and amazingly I found a match. The label on bearing from the hardware store reads:
.250 ID
.625 OD
.1960 width
"precision ball bearings"
But I didn't buy them because they were insanely expensive.
What are the dimensions of the Happ bearings?

The bearings are the same. It's the rollers that differ between the HAPP and Imperial models.

OK thanks :)

You can probably loosen those right up by drenching them in 3-in-1 and spinning them with a drill. It'll break that rust right up. Then flush it out with a solvent (which one is your choice, as long as it doesn't leave a residue) and put one more drop of 3-in-1 on and spin again to lube it up.

I'll have to pick up some 3-in-1 and try that, thanks :)
