Paul, I have a drawing for the wooden bearings the shaft goes through. Will dig it out and post it later.

When I made wood bearings for my Currie, and TipTop I made the weight of the shaft ride on the end grain. I think they last longer.

Paul,
I bought a set of bearings from Paul Cowley. I decided to make a sketch of them for future reference if needed. You may add it to the library if you choose.
Not a professional drawing but hope it will help someone.
