Hi Ed,

I was wondering how you will brake the bearings? I intend to use bearings for the scope I am building.

I was planning on using a clamp arrangement, mounted on the rocker box, that would apply friction directly onto the edges of the side bearings. I think it should work OK but it will look a bit clunky.

Regards,

Justin

Oh BTW the quality of your work is inspiring!
