Fun With Fiber
I needed four 1.00" x 1.00" squares to act as dust caps and bearing holders in the polar and declination axes. It was more work than I had hoped, but by the time I was done, I had four squares that exactly fit into the 1.03" x 1.06" tubes. They press in tight enough so they have to be pressed out from the far end. The next step is to drill .875" diameter holes in the center of each. I have a Forstner bit that size but I want a tight fit, and they are HSS and likely will lose sharpness cutting carbon fiber.
