You have some asian competitors on ebay that sells for half that price, including shipping.
So maybe try to find some local customers to cut on the ebay / paypal / post costs ?

Anyway, good luck. winking smiley

yep they sell cheaper but it can take 7 to 14 days to get from them more like 10 days.
for much of what i bought from there. and i am selling some... i need to cut some prices
some how.and will work to that end. going to cut the 608's price and whittle down the full set that way.
but letting ad's run before changing any thing.
i sold 2 more sets of the LM8UU's one to a Gent in the Netherlands. and one to a Gent in PA today .

[cgi.ebay.com]

is the set that is selling best. the 608's with rubber clad metal seals are better than the zz's all metal ones
they run quieter than all metal and are easier to open for lubrication and service.
Thank you DeuxVis for your wishes of good luck .

Hi folk.
I received the smooth rod and cut a set.
Set is stainless steel T304 Plus or Minus .0003
>grinning smiley< nice rod not the silver pregnant rod but the dimensions are right on.for SAE 5/16
checks out to be straight rolling on glass sheet and against each other.
LM8UU's slide very well all along them. i am working on my ad now
i intend to sell them with the 12 LM8UU's for 60 Bucks plus shipping at around 3 Lb's per BOX...
now a flat rate box and I included the shipping
[cgi.ebay.com]
i edited this today Sept 4th 2011 and again on Sept. 8th and yet again on Oct 6th 2011

I lowered the price of the 608 skate bearings.
[cgi.ebay.com]

i sold more of the LM8UU's a second set to that Gent in PA.
[www.ebay.com]
That's quite a complement.

Please forgive my ignorance - what are the LM8UUs used for in a Prusa? I am currently in the process of acquiring parts for my 1st Prusa and believe that I need 3 608s for the main unit and 3 more 608s for the Wade's Extruder. Am I missing something?

The lm8uus are an alternative to the PLA bushings that are easier to get running smoothly and last longer.

you can use them instaed of the printed bushings. But you need printed parts that are designed to hold them. Contact me, if you need parts

Oh and a guy in New Mexico bought a LM8uu's the other night.smileys with beer
and the day before a nice guy came over and picked up a set.
Yes i gave him a discount -minus the postage and listing fee's
I had to resend the order to Brazil i think his got lost (Customs) I hope he gets them this time.now only one waiting
Ya he got them finally . i think the bar code was messed up on the label

Ok folk i added this "y" motor mount Kit to my sales at Ebay and sorry about the bump.

► RepRap Mendel Prusa 3d printer SAE upgrade kit.
[www.ebay.com]

For Sale one NEW "Y"axis motor bracket & Flange Upgrade Kit.
Kit includes one cast aluminium "Y"axis motor bracket with BELT adjuster.
one Pully Flange upgrade Kit.

The "Why-B" upgrade kit is intended to make your prusa run true by improving the rigidity of the frame and guiding a very tight belt with flanges that can rotate
smoothly with the belt and there by tighten tolarances in the "Y" axis
and the kit includes a flange set to replace the washers on the "X"axis ideler.
i have this kit on my Prusa as i did not like the printed "y" motor bracket
it is just too wimpy and printing a wider thicker one Just Looked Wrong.
ugly ugly ugly and i would still be stuck with adjusting belt tension under the "Y"
print bed over the carriage what a pain. then the relevel devil.
Now i just slide the build surface back out of my way and adjust the belt adjuster
screw with a screwdriver. well one must just loosen the motor mount screw's a bit
so motor will move then retighten but it's much easyer than what was before
and one can tighten the heck out of the belt even enough to break things like belt end clamps and the belt it's self not the Cast Alloy motor bracket.
Bling yes. i have several to sell like maybe 7 or 8 depends on how i feel.
a cool Vitamin
And it just looks cool like "Hot Rod speed parts." only for your Prusa.
The "Why-B" bracket realy firms up my Prusa frame in front much less flex.
and not that my motor ever gets hot. it will act like one big heat sink.
"Try it you'll like it."
To the it must be printed or it's not Prusa folk "Nit! I say Nit!"
the thing will out last any printed part. bio degrade my butt recycle the alloy.
Metric ? contact me... want just the alloy "Y" bracket Contact me..
any other questions like bundeling with my other Bearings kits Contact Me..
???sometimes at IRC #reprap as spad007 not every day but some times.
after payment PAYPAL only..i can ship in one work day USPS Small Flat rate box.to the lower 48.
Sweetness and light contact some one else.
all others contact me first...
