|    Tapered Pins    |
|    19 Jul 24 16:17:23    |
      From: none@none.com99              .. of course I can make my own but for a one off project, but for a       repeat stock job I would like to buy them premade.                     I'm cutting a mold for somebody that casts a body with a through hole.       There are nominal dimensions, but a tapered pin that knocks out easily       would be acceptable. I can buy "standard" tapered pins and "standard"       tapered reamers, but when I was trying to spec it out it seems the pins       are available in sizes ranging down much smaller than the small end of       the reamer. Or in other words, "WHAT?!?"              I went ahead and bought a couple sizes of pins that would be suitable       for the casting, and a 0-10 set of tapered reamers. I don't know how       its going to work out, but I figure if worse comes to worse maybe I can       make a tapered D-Bit reamer that actually matches the pins.              --       Bob La Londe       CNC Molds N Stuff              --       This email has been checked for viruses by AVG antivirus software.       www.avg.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
