Drill Press — measure twice, cut once.

With yet a little more care, I was able to produce a perfect set of pole clamps, and I got them all drilled and sawed and drilled and clamp bolt installed, …

and I’d cut them too big in the first place. The clamps need to be a little smaller than the target rings, so that they’ll have someplace to attach. :facepalm:

I was all ready with the process, just needed to re-set the splay angle on the drill press table… and I went another way with the whole thing, but that’s another show.

I think I have compound angles better documented this time. At least, next time I’m drilling one, hopefully I will find this more useful than what I’d written last time (grumble).
