From reading all of your previous posts and looking at your drawings
it looks like you are going to try to impliment a ridged mount
bearing assembly. The motor should be on the same end. The other
end of your shaft should be a simple mount. It would take a great
deal of engineering including metallurgy to get a ridged mount to
work on both ends.
