Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/HEW3/AD23.6.31 contd.

Other suggestions are

(a) To make this steel housing all in Phosphor bronze, delete the floating bush and have the inside bearing surface treated with Graphite as in the Grapholly bearings, if this is possible.

(b) Have a felt pad or ring let into the bearing as on the Bosch motor.
