VN 7 1/2 DIVIDING HEAD

Ok, made the changes. File on thingiverse updated to reflect pin diameter, screw diameter, and added bevel for retaining screw. Here's pix of cad 3d rendering. Retaining screw diameter seems wrong but I don't have a picture of real McCoy to work with. If someone would like to be guinea pig, let me know and I can send physical object, otherwise I will test in a couple weeks when back at shop.

Thanks for updated dimensions, I think bolt circle for 10 inch index plate is wrong since it's less than arbor and different than earlier (edited) post.
 
These are for the 7 1/2 & for the 10. Looking good Samstu!

I measured center to center of 2 mount holes at 1.702 for the 7 1/2 & 1.844 for the 10 & did the math. Perhaps I did the math wrong.
EDIT: Yep. Did the math wrong. Black shows a better way. D = s / 0.866 = 1.965 for the 7 1/2 & 2.129 for the 10. I'll go back & edit the appropriate spots.
