While I was out, getting a legal thing underway, the 6807 bearings showed up, but they do not fit, the pieces that go inside need a BIG hammer, and where they fit in the main body shell is too small by half a mm. Fixable, but will be a cast iron pita. I dare say the guy who designed it never actually built it and made it work. So while I can and will be stubborn enough to try and fix it, the grrrrrr's of an unhappy camper can be heard about the land.....
