Just got around to the finishing touches. Here are some pics. Brad point
drill to prevent split from bolt hole, clamp between plates to support
sheets. Improvised punch from 2" copper pipe, would work better pressed
between 2 pieces of wood in a vise, but I finished the cuts with an x-acto
knife. 2" professional gasket punch is an arm and a leg. 6 Bearing buttons
on sides of slide keep alignment.

Tried to keep pic count low, cull as needed.

Cool Craig. I'll use these in an how to. Thanks.

Sorry about the size of the photos guys. I did not mean to
clog your inbox. I did not check them
before I sent them out. I was so excited about the quality
and content :) I usually run all photos through Linux gimp
and reduce the "quality" to 30%. This reduces the file size
to one eighth or less of the original file size out of the
camera.

Craig, please load your photos into photo shop and reduce
the quality. Here is one of yours that I ran through gimp.
Notice the size has dropped from 343K to 29K.
Note also there is an undetectable difference in actual "quality".
