Postino:
Please tell me how you lined up the barrel to be perfectly true with the reamer and the end mill--in the horizontal and vertical direction as well as eliminating any angular misalignment. I know that you can move your compound from side to side, but how do you measure. Also, I don't see any vertical adjustment on your vise.

I've wanted to do a similar operation in the past, but the setup was "beyond the scope of my text". I once had an engineering professor that when stumped by a question would always say--"That's beyond the scope of this text.". Hopefully you can tell me how to do it. Thanks.
