The Greaser - to maintain bearings

[Guest Big H]

I just imported the Greaser. It is a majikamasjientjie to maintain and grease bearings. It can regrease bearings form the very small to a bearing with a ID of 15mm and OD of 28 mm. I primarily use it for helicopter bearings but anybody with a lathe should be able to make a larger one. It is essentially a body with a cone inside (the big white body on the pic) and a plunger with a sharpish tip. By placing the bearing in this and exerting pressure by hand the clean grase is forced through the bearing, replacing the dirty and grimy grease. The chopper fely mush smoother and more responsive after servicing the bearings.
