thanks. I thought about pack drill but what is journal bearing?
Journal bearing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Have a look at this.
A journal is that part of an axle which is in contact with and supported by a bearing.
A bearing is a rotating support placed between moving parts to allow them to move easily
A bit confusing I think, Minoru. Each of your definitions refers to a noun and, taken together they would not make up a common or useful phrase. I think MM is using 'journal' as an adjective in this case - unusual I know, but see the article in Wikipedia.

Journal bearing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A journal bearing is a simple bearing in which a shaft, or "journal", rotates in the bearing with a layer of oil or grease separating the two parts through fluid dynamic effects. The shaft and bearing are generally both simple polished cylinders with lubricant filling the gap.

Journal bearing. I wouldn't have got that in a million years. Hardly a well known phrase in most circles methinks. MM must have been desperate.
