Cord, I would think you want to hard anodize it just to make sure you never bend or dent it, I'm probably going to have mine hardened and ground.


Maxx, it doesn't say on the print so I was just curious what tolerance did you hold? I've never used one so I wasn't sure how much clearance was built in. Thanks.

That ITS unit sounds real interesting, using an spline yoke will not do as good a job as a smooth fitted shaft. You cannot read the grease pattern as good.

ofshore, the turning center held it within .0005. However the ones you buy over the counter are within .010. We made them in two pieces; a stainless steel end with an aluminum handle which allows it to break down and fit in an average size tool box.

Maxx give me a call when you get a chance. (978) 985-0639. I lost your new number

We made a stainless end with an aluminum handle. This way it can be broken do so it will fit easily in a standard toolbox.

Its so cheap at mercstuff.com that its not worth making yourself. They come de magnitized....and he lives in Shelby Township and you can pick it up at his house and avoid shipping etc.....

Well, that depends on if you happen to have a CNC lathe and some extra stainless steel bar-stock hanging around.

I'll bet that Maxx's SS/Alum alignment tool comes demaged too!

Nice idea with the 2 piece tool.

Yeah, it's kinda hard to beat my price, the owner of the company i work for is pretty good about letting people use extra stock to make up parts for their own use as long as it doesn't interfere with work.
