The bearing is trued up in this jig and held firmlyin position by a bar. The cutting tool is set 4i the face plate and as the jig revolves the bearingis accurately faced off. This device does better workthan the planer which ordinarily would be used. Thebearings then pass through the same boring and bab-bitting operations as already described. These few pieces of home-made equipment have madepossible the saving of considerable money by thereclamation of JAGE FOR AXLEBEARINGS
