Thanks Steve.

Actually, I had come across your tutorial earlier and was thinking about doing that.

I assume that milling the flats would make it MUCH more secure.

I have a CNC mill at work, but minimal experience with machining stainless (Plastics, wood, and mild steel). Any tips on rpms and cutter size & type (I think I'm currently out of the 4-flute carbide 1/8", but have plenty of 2-flute carbides.)

Does your kit use conical pint or flat-bottom set screws?
