Group Project: Small sliding bar clamp

I agree that a test part for staking would be smart! I will take photos of my two clamps; they are staked differently.
 
The taper on the top is hard to machine in a second op would everyone be fine without the taper on the top but with a radius on the corner?

Ok with me!

The tubes are dead on 0.5000"

Here's the two types of staking I have.

working on the parts, bought the stock and have 6 cut, and starting to machine them to size. hope to have them shipped out this week because I will be gone next week.
 
Oh, I didn't realize we were a go. I'll get some stock and get moving. :) I'm planning on 12 parts. I'm fine making more if needed.
 
Any thoughts on how to spread the parts? Maybe a variation on the pass-along box? That way everyone only ships twice (since the box has to make two laps)?

i think we ship the parts to you and you assemble them and we pay the shipping to the next person in line for the box, then they grab their 2 clamps and ship it out. I am almost ready to ship out my parts might have to ship them after next week because I can't drive yet and we don't have much time to go to the post office.

I'm getting 0.506 right now on test holes for the moving jaw. The print calls out 0.506+0.003-0. Unless someone has a concern, I'll use that setting on the boring head moving forward. With checks along the way, of course.
 
That's a winner! The bar is 0.500, and the originals were 0.506" bore.
