If you look at mine and the size, they should fit above that heat sink.

Could you put two on the right side (one above the axis of rotation and one below)? I would think it would have the same effect.

All done now..... since i spaced out the control box now theres plenty of room.

And here is the print.

New question, is the part that's tapped solid cast iron, or is it hollow? If hollow, how thick are the walls? Did you use NF screws?

One above and one below the pivot point puts them less than three inches apart. The pivot is only 1 1/2 inches above the bottom.

I installed mine today, .450 in from the corner he iron is solid, I didn't have short 1/4 20 screws, 7/8 was the shortest I could find so I tappet it that deep. I did have to take the heat sink off to drill the tap hole, though. 'Twas fun climbing up on the counter to drill and tap the holes, at my advanced age, too. Well, getting down was even harder.

I used 1/2" long m4 Because I had them. And mine was solid where there at.

I used 1", 1/4 -28 screws so i drilled in all of 3/4" no issues its solid.

ONce i spaced out the control box i didn't have to remove the heat sink.... I was able to drill it with my sioux drill.... when i tapped it i used a long extension just to get my hand out of the way.

Yeah, I had to use a pulley tap.
