You hear that manufacturers? We want miniature roller-block assemblies to put under our transformers. No joke.
Actually Norm, something like this already exists in the automotive industry. There is a bearing plate that goes between the top of a suspension strut (shock absorber) in your car and the underside of the shock tower of your car. These two plates have a race with small ball bearings in it. The purpose is to keep the suspension from binding when you turn the steering wheel, most importantly when the car is sitting still and you are turning the steering wheel, as in a parking lot. Forgive the simplified explaination for those of you in the know. Now all we have to do is try it. The size of the bearing plate might even be close to the size of my toroidals. I was in the shop when they replaced the front sruts on my daughters Honda Civic and saw them fall apart (178,000 miles) bearings everywhere, but new bearing plates might well be the trick, or something like them. Thanks Norm
