This is from a PM member who is without a working lathe and can't do the mod without one. So he sent me the part to modify and get him back making chips. Then there was the problem of the USPS loosing the package for 21 days but i finally got it. I will reface the mating surfaces because there are a few nicks and i can see daylight between them. Then i will remove the amount of metal thats in the gap between the two dials 2nd pic. Then return, rethread and make the new groove for the dutchman screw 3rd pic. Well off to the dungeon...Bob

Paul i just figured out its your shaft LOL. The drilling fixture is simple to make and i have more how to pics of it. The next one is going to be offset so i can use longer drill bits...Bob

Bob you should do a thread on the drilling fixture guild if you took pictures. Would be a good project to put on the list.
