With a jig it would be less of a problem. A good drill press could drill the starter hole then finish off with a good tap after any re-centering if required and finish drilling for the correct tap size. 8BA flywheels are drilled through so no bottoming tap would be needed.
If a person has a good mill and a rotary index table, the jig really wouldn't be needed. Most machine shops should be able to do this. |
They whine about not having the proper jig for set-up? I just think they don't want to do a one-off.
I have access to a CNC Mill, CAD and G-Code would be simple to make the jig in that thread (brilliantly simple!). I wonder what type of jig it would take to hold the flywheel (Mill is Big Bridgeport) and drill the new holes directly on the mill?
