Machining a bearing carrier 

Excellent job Adam, great video, keep'um coming..

Hello Adam, They say the customer is always right... If the customer was happy then mission accomplished Cheers. Paul,,

Too much press reduces the internal clearance of the bearing and could lead to early failure. You are correct though that .0005" is light. He could consider a deeper bore and an internal retaining ring to prevent the bearing walking out.

what kind of lathe are you using??
