pardon me..

I have a question to some of covenrech experts, I am looking for the correct wire for my bearings. So far a person pointed me at a copper wire thats used for electricity. Is a wise for me to use it or do you have any suggestion? I ransacked around my house.

Joseph, just get some trolling wire from your local tackle shop. A few feet of scrap should be sufficient.

Use the wire to hold onto your bearings when you blow-dry them under heat to drive the old grease out.

Paper clip, or take a twisty tie and strip the covering off of it. Even a safety pin will work.

If you really want some thin copper wire - pm me your address and I'll send you some in an envelope. I have a big spool that is pretty pliable (thin like 24 gauge or something - don't aske me to explain the wire gauges either....lol).
