[Jack Fitzgibbon]

We experienced the same sheared roller support failure.  What was the fix?

Thanks

Depending on the failure it may be repairable (mine was).  The most  
usual failure I've seen involves the supports for the internal  
rollers sheering off.  I fixed the broken ones, and improved the rest  
for about $3.

A bit later I found someone else had invented the solution before me
