There is a shoulder above the threaded section, I had it holding that.

It worked great for the other three, I just forgot to nip up the chuck for this one. It was a reminder of how you have to concentrate doing this stuff. It could have been a lot worse!

Hey Joe!!?!?!

Break any tooling?

Did you end up getting the measurements of the shaft for the crank handle?

Not measurement but a Z0 in the wrong spot in the program.

Didn't break any tooling thankfully. It was just a cheapo carbide insert, but it survived.

I'll email you re: the crank handle shaft.
