I got about 1/2 way thru the video, would have been nice to see what the end product was first then how they got to it. All that fine work, then they just lay the slit piece on the table to tap it, just holding it in their fingers?

Re: Hyatt bearings, is this how they were made?
Interesting video.
Wikipedia tells me "helical-shaped rollers made from flat spring steel were more flexible than solid-cylinder rollers".
Years ago I thought they were just grooves in the roller until I found grease inside. I made rollers from drill rod for my Buick when I couldn't find the Hyatts. They work OK and I don't drive it much.

When did I do that?
