Instructions

1. Cut the bar

   Start by cutting a SS304 bar (3/16" x 1/2") to the length specified in the model

   Use a bandsaw to ensure the bar is ground to the correct length

   The final lenght should be within 10 thousandths of the specified length in the model

2. Drill holes

   Position the bar in the mill and drill a 0.169" hole .500" away from the edge of the bar

   Note that the holes are 25 thousandths larger than the 6-32 screw that will pass through them

3. Chamfer the holes

   Use a carbide chamber bit to carefully chamfer the holes on both sides of the bar

   This step is to remove any burrs around the holes. Handle the carbide bit with care, as it is brittle and can break easily

4. Remove burrs

   Inspect the ends of the bar for any remaining burrs

   If burrs are present, use a grinding wheel to remove them and ensure a smooth finish.
