Brad has some pretty good tools. I have a couple of his jigs and don't have any complaints. He's a good guy to deal with too!

Cool I am thinking about getting a RPK front trunnion fixture .

I use this one all the time... It makes life easy!

I dont currently have any kits left to build. I love his tools, just cant afford them. So I copy them as best I can.

There is another option.

That's a NICE setup Blacksmith! Especially if a person has a big table to work with. It would be a lot more precise than the Gunthings jig but for us without the luxury of a mill or a large drill press that are limited to bench top drill presses the Gunthins jig (or adaptation thereof) works great.

Thanks. It’s just one of the Mini Mills. But I like it.

The Mill table does make it easy. But it is possible to mount one on a drill press table. The difference between the mill and the drill press table is that I only have to secure it once for the 3 holes. On a drill press, I would have to loosen it and manually line it up with the bit. I imagine you would have to do the same thing with that tool. But I can see how it might save a little time. IMO just purchasing a Mill table for the drill press would be a better investment. http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INSRIT?P...&PARTPG=INLMK3
It would not be a Mill but it would be a Tool that would get well used. rather than something that only serves one purpose.

Yes that is a much better option I think I will go with.

Thanks Blacksmith !

No problem.
I buy most my Tools from Enco. Great stuff!

I was shocked at how inexpensive the tables have become. Several years ago I priced them out at around $200.00.
That’s when I decided to buy my Mill.
BTW
Here is something ells you might find useful. They are designed to work with the table. and with a little engineering you can clamp damn near anything.

Scratch the Harbor freight link. I just saw these at Enco.

The link doesn’t seem to work?
It’s a clamping set similar to mine for $29.00
