The index plate was made using a rotary table ( maybe that what you meant by indexer?). Mine positions (supposedly ) within seconds of a degree which is more accurate than I can drill on the drill press. To keep the holes as precise as possible they have to be started with a center drill , then the bit changed to a drill one size smaller than the desired size , then finished drilled to size with a precision ground drill bit. ( or you could ream them). This is what takes so long making that plate.

How did you make the index plate without using an indexer?
 
An outstanding piece of work. You have to be proud of it. Truly professional level work.
 
Very worthy of project winner, beautiful work. No problems holding the work when boring? Brian
