Default Boring a hole question...


wrote in message
...
Put the job pieces in the mill vice, locked
the tables, drilled a
14.5mm hole and then, without changing
anything in the X-Y dimensions,
used the boring head, Result - holes were
undersize...stuffed 2 more
bearings.....(thats ok, had heaps of them from
discarded VCR's)


Look at the bright side----the holes were
undersize. Beats the crap out of the
other alternative, oversize holes. Been
there/done that. Sucks. Bore it
bigger/machine and press in a sleeve/recut the
bore.
