The end of the 3/8 drill rod was turned down to fit the i.d. of the two bearings i pressed into the disk, little jb weld on the end of the shaft and perfect

Nice job on a useful tool, and you sure can't beat the price!:victory:

I remember drilling brass for a 00-90 tap using a #62 drill that broke as soon as the drill touched the work. This type of accessory solved the breakage problem immediately. I don't use it that often but when I do need it, nothing else will do.
