[EDIT 5-16-2011] After a couple attempts, I have determined, conclusively, that I am not a machinist. So, I grabbed a copy of AutoCAD. Can someone crank this out for me? I have also attached a PDF file containing the design, and can get the .dwg file to you.  Last edited by LagShock; 05-16-2011 at 08:19 PM. |

Thanks slinger. I actually went out and gave this a shot today since I didn't see any response. The .8-.9 holes were murder on my poor little 2/3HP drill press. It turned out...pretty ugly, but functional.

O really, guess its time for a bigger drill press then What material did you use. I would have tried with wood first, just to see it Pics?

| Active Member Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Houston, Texas |  As I was working on it, I came up with about half a dozen things I needed to do differently the next time around. Ive got enough material for 5-6 more, so eventually ill do up a nicer one. I didn't actually have a 1/2" bit for the bottom hole, so I started with a 3/8" and opened it up with a bench grinder. It is set up to clamp at the top and bottom; one side is threaded for 6-32 and the other is opened up enough for the screw to pass through. I think Ill have more luck with the 13/16" and 7/8" bits if I work my way up with smaller bits first. I used 1/4" steel; wood would have been fine for this, but then it'd be made out of wood, and I wouldn't have had to buy any new tools. And it'd be so light....

Ill say this some of the dimensions are going to be crazy to match up perfectly... I mean you have it out to 10-thou

This would be no problem to do but there are a few questions I have on this. As BigOldSkool stated, your print is holding a + or - of .0005 limit. For what your using this for a + or - of .010 or .005 limit would work fine. Ken W
