Re: New Project
Yes 7 1/4 inch C-C is correct, I just didn't want someone have a minor variation and get upset because they were off a bit.

Re: New Project
Understood! Y'all must realize drilling 3/8" holes in steel is not as eazy as wood. No forstner nor brad point bits for that task. Twist drill bits tend to wander!wasatch wrote:Yes 7 1/4 inch C-C is correct, I just didn't want someone have a minor variation and get upset because they were off a bit.
To be accurate, I would drill a very small pilot hole, clamp the part to the drill press table, and then gradually increase bit sizes up to the final dimension by drilling through the previous hole.

Re: New Project
I know you meant to say 1/2 inch holes.

Re: New Project
Nice application ! Belt sanders still make the best lathe chisel sharpener.
