    Jig Complete and Front Pad Area Machined

    Hi Guys,

    I completed the jig this afternoon and the body aligned perfectly with the X-axis of the mill.

    In order to get the pad to sit flat I machined the area of the front pad. Thank heavens for the DRO! I only took about 0.2mm to clean/level the area and remove that little hump at the front. I had to file the bevel on the top of the receiver a bit at the front, as this was a bit raised too.

    I have lock-tite'd the pad in place for now and will drill and tap for the front mounting screws tomorrow if I can find some time.

    I'm happy there were no dramas with this little operation. Thankyou Peter for the Good-Oil on the jig.
