DOUG
Use a square piece of paper the same size or a little larger than the tube.
Mark the corners then move it 45deg. and mark them again.

Doug

I marked the end caps then tranferred the marks.

You may also want to stagger the eight holes that go in from the end relative to
the eight that go in radially to prevent the rivets interfering with each other
during installation.

Subject: drilling holes in a tube

I have one more question what is the best way to measure and mark

the

torque tubes for drilling the eight evenly spaced holes

Cut a strip of paper maybe 1/2" wide - exactly long enough to wrap around
the tube so the ends meet. Fold the strip in half. Fold it again. Fold it
one more time. Unfold the strip and mark the creases to make it easier to
see them. Wrap the strip back around the tube and mark the tube.

Joel

HTML has nothing to do with MicroShaft. It's not even
the new wave. Used for years years on Mac, Unix, Linux
and all those other great systems.....even Windows.

Eric

P.S. Wray, your web site is awesome. I don't know
if these web and email impaired folks have problems
with your excellent, detailed cad drawings, but I've
been to your site many times and have found it very,
very valuable. Thanks for what must be a great
effort on your part.

either way, but in Bobs reply I could see the html codes so turned them off.
