A bush mill, have you tried the bush lathe? hand drill in a vise and a hand file or Dremmel if you wanna be fancy. Lucky theres no Occupational Health and Safety in my shed.There was a TV show on here a few years back on Bush Mechanics, these guys are aboriginals and they were making brake shoes and clutch pads out of certain types of bush woods, was actually realy cool to watch as well as have a good laugh. Oh yeah, I've done the bush lathe thing and much worse It's amazing what you can do when you have little to work with.

About 2 days before Roost volunteered to machine some of the adapters I had started making a adapter by hand.Poor mans water jet:Poor mans milling machine....Now I'm wondering if I should finish it or wait for a really nice one from Roost....Yeah, I'm going to make a stab at finishing it
that's a fine lookin unit.
Yep, I already checked clearances and I'm good At least I think I'm good.But I could be bad.We'll see
