[QUOTE="oexing, post: 130849, member: 1493"] Eric, look at my photos in previous page, now is your chance to go for hollow dowel positioning. In my eyes the through stud design is not overly brilliant , you won´t find this on modern machinery. These long through holes in head and muff are no way exact to machine. Instead put components on a mill for DRO aided boring short close fits for dowels like in engine cases. Easy for assembling jobs later. Long spigoted nuts on top are questionable at best for positioning anything - possibly allright for coping with poorly machined bores as you can bolt this up somehow according to typical toolroom principle: " . . . .it´ll be allright . . ."
