I have a 2 ton press in my shop, and a crap load of bearings from my dad's old helicopter, so I might be able to make do. If not, ebay probably has some bearings. Im looking at less than $200. Everything else I can find is $300. I'll inspect some of the drill presses in Lowes and see what they are made of. If I can find out if there are roller or ball bearings I'll let you guys know.
