Danish roller bearings, 100BC

[richsc]

Reaching way back in my memory, back in the days of 1/24 scale slot cars (anyone remember those?) the low end ones shipped with nylon points that substituted for the balls in the bearing races. These were just like an inward pointing star that reduced friction of the axle just by reducing surface area. Could this be how the axle is designed?<br>
Of course, the slot car weighs a lot less than an ox cart. <p>Richard Campbell, Legio XX<br>
