I was going to check to see if anyone came up with a solution and it looks like someone does. I dropped mine off at the machine shop at my work and the guys are making something very similar to the ones posted above. Should work perfectly. I would have liked to get a bunch made but he was doing it as a favor so I didn't want to push my luck.

Otherwise if you guys are willing to wait and pay a little more I could work something out with Pole to get them powdercoated black?




As for finish, I'd take a rough & ready replacement in consideration for a price break. Just knock 'em out & ship 'em off! I, for one, would be happy to custom finish my own - if I so desired.


Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Well I started on them last night at work. I was very bored and had nothing to do so I just started on company time I found out my tooling problem from the other day and replaced all the carbide inserts. Finish is 100% better and the finisehd product was much better. One of the guys in the toolroom showed me a very slick adapter for the lathe to clamp thin plates. So I'll be able to square these up and turn them down to size easily on the lathe. I was going togring them to size but its just a waste of time and your guys money. I'm hoping on Monday to finish turning them down,drill the offset hole and finish deburring them all.

I'll let you guys know when they are "done" next week and then we can go from there. I don't want any payments till these are done and I'm confident you all will be pleased with the finished product. If there is still plenty of interest I'll make anohter batch of these.

Now whos all in for sure? I can't remember who is in or interested?

Just to wrap it up and order a set, I'd like to check something last minute. Are these that you are making similar to Pole's in the sense that they are 1/4" all around but have a small step that allows it to fit the rubber, or is it 1/4" all around? thanks...

As long as it's similar to pole's design and will fix the problem at hand, I'm in, for sure.

yeah start a list



And for those that are still wondering these will be like Poles. 1/4" thick plate with a step in it for the rubber to easily slide onto.
