[QUOTE="PuG, post: 6854907, member: 55620"] Thank you for the reply. I could bore the holes with perhaps an end mill cutter straight to 22? and as you say just use some bearing lock tight or equivalent. (or 21.8 and ream) Saves having to drill up and quick. My idea with just laser cutting a point hole for the first frame of reference, given I would try and do them in pairs after welding so the angular alignment would be the same, and the 300mm distance between would always correspond - but equally could etch and drill small pilot holes. Yes on a jig, I was trying to think tonight how to clamp it. I was half thinking put the bed attachments (for milling/cutting etc) on my Myford Super7 lathe, its probably easier clamping it down horizontally than holding vertical with the cheap Chinese one. When I cock it up I'll post pictures :) [/QUOTE]
