POTD- PROJECT OF THE DAY: What Did You Make In Your Shop Today?

Is the slot for a retaining wedge?

Yep. Wasn't sure if it would need one, but I went ahead and put it in while I was machining the arbor.

This weeks project about to wrap up.
Tandem lower mounts for the IH Cub Cadets with rear 3 point lifts.
Used the big angle plate I was making a few weeks ago to drill the holes in the nested ass'y for accuracy.
Worked out well!
turned 2 pins to snug fit in 2 of the vertical holes to register against and secured w/clamps.
Holes are 33/64's for easy fit of a 1/2" clevis pin

Followup on the regulator repair.
What I thought was a simple cap wasn't. Installed it and it leaked out the front, knob side of the regulator.
I'd found the O-ring inside the case and after more searching found a spring. HUM bored the cap to let the spring maybe press on a diaphragm. Still leaked out the front. More searching showed a piston like part hanging on the circuit board. Can't believe that didn't short something out when it flew in there.
Long story short the cap needed a bore for the piston with O-ring to seal, and a groove outside that for the spring. Had to grind a sort of trepanning tool to cut the spring recess. Most of the afternoon spent repairing a 20 some year old plasma, that could die anytime. lol
Sorry no pictures.

Sorry, was so fed up on the multiple iterations that it just got slapped together.
Ran it to cut some parts on the cnc, still leaking a LITTLE bit at the stem but not enough to worry about.

Wow, you have big ones!

You guys can relate. 3/4" holes in 1 inch plate 88 times. Annular cutter makes a mess of things but does the job.
