So how is the project going? I received my reamer the other day, but I need to finish up my backup plan first. I have a good spindle but with a different thread, so I'm making a new screw to fit this first. If the reaming goes wrong, I'll have another spindle to use.
I sure don't know why this happens to me all the time, but it seems like each and every one of my projects takes on its own life and grows out of proportion. But buying a new spindle is out of the question. Can't let the machine win.
