I have even checked that the centre shaft is straight prior to assembly. If i fit just the bearings and the spurgear holder and locate it in postion and spin it, you can see that the spur holder is slightly out and does not rotate true, could it be that the spurgear holder itself is slightly out, this problem is driving me nuts...................

hope someone has an answer
Try using a little 300 grit sand paper and lightly sand the holder and spur gear on both sides. There may be some imperfections that may not be seen by the naked eye. If it still wobbles try changing the gear.
