Ok, I just have to say, the ASCII graphic of a Hurdy Gurdy, flawless!

I used a teflon block drilled to accomodate my shaft; it is embedded

of the top braces headward of the wheel and soundpost. May not be
professional, but it is quiet and works fine.

As for roller bearing, don't, they make all kinds

Home Depot
they work fine. I have issues with both the wheel assembly and
key-box
resting on or connecting to the sound board, and build so that
neither touch
the sound board. Seems a shame to pay the price for a good sound
board then
lag everything to it restricting the pure sound it could have
made. Hopefully
we are building musical instruments not packing crates.
Best regards
