Default Where to get Black & Decker Parts

If it is a "normal" ball bearing, get the numbers off the bearing.
Contact a local bearing supply house for availability. Many
bearings are $5 from a bearing house and the same bearing might be
$40 from OEM.

Does anyone know where to buy Black & Decker parts outside of
blackanddecker.com.

I have one of their well built older grinders. The motor itself
still
works fine but the bearing right below the grinder wheel is
shot.
This is an easy fix, but B&D no longer carrys parts. Just
because the
main offices dont carry the parts dont mean no one has them.
Anyone
know of another distributor for B&D parts. I'm sure someone has
one
on a shelf, in fact I dont doubt that the bearing from one of
their
newer grinders would fit. It's just a simple ball bearing, but
finding the right size is the problem.

Anyone?????

Thanks
