Thanks for your write up. I enjoy it.

Thanks for the DOF link, ultimate1. This looks very good instead of the LN solutions. Problem is that it is very expensive for poeple outside the US, because we have to pay shipping plus tax and customs on parts and shipping on it. So unfortunately it's very expensive - approx. 840 euros = 1025 usd at the moment. Plus eventually a new ceramic bearing which is around 250 euro = 305 usd. So in the end we end up at around 1330 usd.

Regards
Markus
Hi Markus,

I am not sure if these guys will save you on shipping and customs but might be worth a try as they are in UK
