Ive made 6 pairs of spacers...between a driven shaft (both ends) and a
bearing race and each and every time, Ive gotten the OD wrong.
Each and every time..tap on the bearing race..and the ******* slides on.

How the hell does one calculate such a thingy?

This was off a pumping unit gearbox..and the people are starting to look
at me like im an utter bumpkin...which it looks like I am...sigh.

The ID was to have a .002" interference fit..and I accomplished this
with no issues. I machined the OD to be .003 larger than the ID of the
bearing race....and once the bearing race was tapped a couple times..the
damned thing slid on with a tad bit more than hand pressure. Easy with a
small block of wood.

Blink blink....

Anyone got any ideas/help/calcs that would fill in this blank space in
my knowlege?

This is what Ive been machineing parts for...

Im going to have to get the Clausing 15" lathe running..the Hardinge
HLV-H...is way way too small for most of the work.

I installed a Axelson 20x120 lathe in their shop...but they dont have
3ph yet..or anytime soon...sigh....

This one....
