Hi,Thanks for your thoughts... and yeah, you're right, a machine shop could bang some out in no time. I could even probably do some mock-useful ones myself, but....
Theres always that 'knowing' it has worked, in numerous applications, and will work in future--- that you don't get with a new fabrication. (And if I'm the fabricator, you don't even know it will work in the first place.. )
I guess my dream-answer-post here would be something like.....
We've had a crateful of those in the back of our shop since the sixties, they're made of Swedish Surgical stainless steel and have teflon glide bushings and metric verniers... six sizes, five bucks a crack. Want some ?
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that post to show up. Then I'll be getting to work on the Lakers Season Tickets.
