149: Finally doing the profiling on the indicator stand joint
148: 3d Printed a holder for my Double-taper Y collets.
147: Dereeling set up for the wire-cut/strip machine. I use a torid inductor as a damping weight - then the wire goes over a spool the is supported by elastic cords. The motion of the wire is jerky - would jam or tangle - this works.

145: Snubs turned out well.
144: Ended up using just a drill bit.
143: Boring failed as the hole got larger
142: Tried to bore to size.
141: Not a good setup.. Learned a lesson here.

152: Just need to flip it over and shave off the bottom..
153: Snugs are finished. Nice positive action.
154: Next - need to make knobs.
155: Super close up of a ding on the milling machine table. You can see the shinny bit the PGS left.
156: Making the sleeve for the joint.
157: Not much room for turning the cone.
158: The cone end finished
159: Sleves finished turning. Will drill the cross holes later.
160: A 3D print went very bad..
