EDIT: Check post #168 for pricing on the solid bearing.

And here he talks about his oil fed ball bearings he had intended on selling:

So he had full intention on selling these himself at first.
If he was willing to sell it for $200 and still make himself a profit, it pretty much reaffirms what I said earlier that the "solution" costs less $100 to make. And they sell it for $1850. With only a 5 year warranty. |
Yes, you are right about the bearing, the plain version shows up indeed in this thread.
