There should be room for 3 X pieces. The plan is to put one in the middle and then put bolts through all 3 to clamp them together. This is the...
This weekend I finally ( finally, when did I start this, February??!!) cut the ALU extrusions and set up my mechanical bits. I still have some...
Thanks gawndad! I'm probably going to find out something I don't like! I'm ok with that. The machine design wont have to change. I can swap the...

I've done similar things with model airplane parts but the results are usually not ideal. Even with a drill press, brad point bits and a center...
Would there be any interest in an alternative set of plates that you could have cut on a laser out of 1/4" MDF? The design would be changed as is...
