You might try McMaster Carr for a motor speed controller or Harbor Freight, maybe a hardware store ceiling fan speed controller... there are a lot of off the shelf controllers out there that might work. Be sure to check the power requirements of the motor that you are using and that the speed controller can handle it. If you aren't sure let me know and I'll try to help.<br />OttoOtto Beldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01216660670383308620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604042776942832369.post-25288437380160534522012-02-08T18:27:13.586-08:002012-02-08T18:27:13.586-08:00I actually ended up getting 2 bolt flange bearings...I actually ended up getting 2 bolt flange bearings with a zerk fitting from bearingson.com.

If there is an OSH in your area look in those yellow bins where they sell the pins, speciality fasteners, grommets etc... Maybe Lowe's or Home Depot might have them too.<br /><br /> - OttoOtto Beldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01216660670383308620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604042776942832369.post-64474194095292278072012-02-07T19:52:10.451-08:002012-02-07T19:52:10.451-08:00Is there a particular store you got the bearing se...Is there a particular store you got the bearing seats/ bearings at?
