    Well I have a lathe and a mill.

    I want the light on top of the tower so I spun this on the lathe. Then threw it on the mill. Spent way too much time tinkering. Then changed it again.

    I cut a recess for the spool. Then I cut a centering bore for the towers stub.

    It has changed a bit tonight. Will take pics tomorrow. Damn little drill bit broke when I was drilling my tower. Everything was fine, 1 bolt (5mm) was bottoming out just a little too early. I snapped the bit in there. Not likely to get it out. Maybe I will try but in the mean time I just went from a 2 bolt to a 3 bolt pattern

    Once you get a good working model I'd bet you could sell a few of those...

    Showing the revised bolt pattern since the broken bit in the tower stub changed my plan!
    Disregard the chatter, patience wore thin. Plus it is not showing. It wont happen again.

    Actually I cut it down today. It was too big and bulky. I also pulled the broken 1/8" drill bit and tapped the hole. Now I don't need the 2 extra holes I made. I just can't sleep when things go wrong! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1444254278.215895.jpg
