      From: null@void.com              Thanks everyone for all tips.              One is, given saw cutting long lengths of "box" is accurate transversely       but less so "vertically" due to spring in section and distance outrigger       is from saw, position "flash" at "side" as sawn so have "square" end       as do "measure along" direction AND drill can go through both sides of       "box" on drill-press, not risking hitting "flash" on opposite side.              I will look if adjustable square with a wide "foot" is available. Would       need a "foot" about 2inches / 50mm wide for when doing big Rectangular       Hollow Sections with big corner radii.              Bigger overall point - thanks a lot everyone.              Regards,       Rich S              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
