    Making a boring head

    Due to boredom and having some spare aluminum and wanting to make some precision holes for an up coming CNC conversion I decided to make my own boring head. When I'm done it should be able to be adjusted accurate enough to .001". It will be able to be held in a 1/2" tool holder. When I get a chance to actually get the CAD drawings up I'll post pictures of them but here's some as it is now. The red dots on it are to give me an idea of where I want to put some upcoming holes.
