Darren, they are looking good, great idea using the hex bar and like the ultra think parallels! :thumbup:

Well, I probably won't be back on here until the weekend, at which point I may have met some of you at Harrogate hopefully. :D

Now you have drilled your new ones quite successfully, you must be feeling a lot happier.

Never a truer word spoken, I was starting to worry about my machinery being a bit naff, thankfully this normal brass drilled very smoothly.

I did swipe the tips of the drill bit to take the edge off, though I don't know how much this helped cos I wasn't taking any chances with a sharp one.
You could say I'd had enough of frustration by then :lol:

Thanks for this little tip John, all added to the database for future ref :thumbup:

Thanks but the idea really came about due to what I had to hand that was big enough. Should look nice though :thumbup:
