To test that everything works before I commit to wood. I printed up a test jig. It needed a little refinement to open up the bores (3d printing is not perfect for dimensions, esp of circles). But then. I could test fit everything.

And it works.

It works better than I ever dreamed it would. The bar in the image slides easily, but with just a quarter turn of the bolt. It locks on place. A quarter turn is all it takes. From free moving to locked. Now I need to buy the wood.

A red 3d printed block. Going through the block in one direction is a polished steel bar. The edge of a bronze bushing is just visible in the block. On top of the block in the far corner a thick washer and a hex drive bolt is visible. The whole assembly is on a wooden workbench.

After I finished work on my primary project yesterday afternoon, I had a bit of time left until the 3d print finished. So I decided to have a play with my new self made sensitive drilling attachment.

Aim was to drill a 0.5mm hole in some brass.

I achieved that with minimal breakage. I've just had a chance to test the hole with gauge pins.

500µm pin fits.
600µm doesn't git.

I'm considering that a big win.

BTW, if you are in the market for letter sets, which tend to be very expensive, there is currently a sale at leatherstampmaker.com. I am not affiliated with them but that is where I get my lettersets. The founder had a motorcycle accident which paralyzed him and he started the company because it was one of the few things he could still do. I really respect his drive. #LeatherCraft #LetterSets #Machining #Leather
