the ball bearing I bought it from my work. I can post some pictures if you want.

Thanks, I'm building a disappearing bobber, i.e. it moves like a pendulum. I did get a flange bearing, but found it to be too stiff because of grease. I popped one of the seals & washed the grease out so it moves better now, but I'd still prefer it to oscillate longer. My initial version had ABEC-5 bearings used in inline skates, these are really smooth but mounting them became a challenge.
I find disappearing swingers to be most difficult targets in IPSC matches, so I'm trying to build my own for airsoft practice.
