Been there done that.....Dad used to have a special shallow cardboard box he
would use when he seperated the housing halves on the Ham-M....otherwise
know as....
"Their Off"
boing boing boing - note this is also a good reason to use somewhat
excessive quantities of grease upon reinstalling them - helps keep them in
their place while you jiggle the housing halves....I often wonder how many
of thsoe ball bearings the new home owner found when in the basement when my
folks moved!
