Where do Idler Sprockets come from?

[Roux]

I need an idler sprocket and have sketched up ways to stuff a 26x10x8mm SKF bearing into a machined out 15 tooth sprocket. Then I did a google search and ended up in the buggy websites where they accept a teflon rubbing block as a good solution. What have you guys done to get something like a 15 tooth sprocket with bearing(s) to build in as an idler.

They have a set up that you could probably use. It should be reasonably priced.

Try Google. Lots of sources.

Ditto. I got some from McMaster Carr. No need to build your own, they do come with bearings.

Just ordered from McMaster.

When a daddy Idler Sprocket and a mommy Idler Sprocket love each other very much...

The Mommy's stomach?

What did you do with the two I gave you?
