Auto parts places.
Can't look up bearings by size.
Have no goddamn clue what lapping compound is.
All they know how to do is look up by year/make/model.
What the hell is the use??!

Lapping compound is the white crap which forms on the jowls of large dogs that you don't want to touch.
True story...this winter I was in the AutoZone in Fall Rive. The kid behind the counter commented on how he liked my jacket. I said yea, it's French...
Wow did they give him some crap for that 
Jacket was by Millet. Great hiking/climbing gear if you can get it at discount.

I would have taken you for a Marmot man.
Maybe Arcteryx. |

NAPA is a little better, they can actually cross reference Sierra part numbers. |

If you wear a Millet, someone should be doing your Autozone shopping for you. |

It's just an adventure brand similar to Marmot or Columbia but a bit nicer.
I like it because nobody else wears it.

Nicer than Marmot? Ehhhhhhh
Nothing is nicer than Arcteryx though.
They're pretty much the Henri Lloyd of outdoor gear. |

I'd put it on par with Arcteryx and below Canada Goose.

Rule number one is to go to an independently owned autoparts store. Over on my side of the bay, we have south county auto supply.. They helped me order a bunch of bearings for my 108" belt sander and pressed them for me.

Hard to find around these parts although there's a Carquest (independently owned, weird hours, shocker) in the "friendly" part of NB that can order just about anything.
3 blocks from that cop stabbing the other day. |
