    Yeah, along my thoughts. The heat seems to build in the body, not the bearings. Might have a go. Need to take it to bits and look at thickness of body, may be able to groove it before i fit a jacket.

    I use the bfw40/e ...nice spindle, yes it gets hot, my solution is to not use it for long periods at a time! (like anything over 30 minutes...and you can fry an egg on it)
