Stock came in. Made the bushings and some locating pins for the bushings. That way when I weld the bushings in place they won't be too far off. The slot is 1/4" because well that is the end mill that I have. The tap hole is 5mm for an M6. The pins are 1/4" in diameter for the slot part and 5mm to locate the bushings. The locating pins keep the screw hole in the center of the slot. Here is a picture of the plate with the bushings welded on, ready for drilling. Ignore those ugly cold tack welds! They will be gone in a while. Hope they hold up long enough to do the job. I was too lazy to switch wire spools from the sheet metal wire 0.023" to something more substantial.
