Can you make a set for 2 1/8" ? Are you making a whole set or just the center ports? It will be a complete set. Making a set for smaller primary tubes is easy. Might do them if there is enough interest in several sets.

Very nice, but I have a suggestion. The space between the tube extensions will be trickier to machine than the rest of it. I think your machinist would be happier with an hour glass design(think siamese) This would make it easier, and no real effect on the part. Very cool, nice drawing.

I was considering doing exactly what you recommend. Just keeping that as a backup if my machinist kicks it back.

I wish I had your patience and skills to turn out the products that you do. The Millwright in me allows me to make and design what I need for projects but it sure doesn't turn out half as nice looking as yours do. Lol. I guess the age difference has a lot to do with it and some of the tooling that is available now. To late for me now to step up my game.
