First, thanks for your original post. I think it’s very clear and useful.
Would you be able to describe any more precisely how you converted your paddles? What tools you used. etc.? Anything you’re willing to share. I see that you say a little more in reply to another response which is already useful.
It’s very important for me to find a way to add bearings to all of my paddles, but I’m not sure if I will be able to do it myself or whether I will need to find help doing it. I use my tools for work everyday for a micro precision task and if my knives are not “just right” it’s as if they aren’t sharp at all. Other posts about technique have helped me to work around this problem to some degree, but not entirely. So I can’t thank you enough in advance for any help on this issue.
