Warning. The cap is THICK and HARD. I went through lots of drill bits with cutting fluid and, when I ran out of drill bits, I ground out the inside of the cap to finish my hole! This would be a good situation to: a) drill most of it with a fatter bit and finish with your desired size. b) tool up to grind the inside of a 3/4" ID cylinder. c) decide it would look nice to grind a flat face onto the top cap cylinder and drill your hole in the center of it (thinnest part)

Slow down the drill, don't push hard, use the right bit, keep it lubed... :toast:

I know, I know. I've drilled about 7 different caps now. This one is at least double thickness (triple to some). Drill press, low speed, lotsa Rapid Tap. And still, it was a bear. Great general advice tho. :)

Looks awesome! What did you use for the large nylon spacer? I'd planned on filling the cap w JB-Weld. I think I like your idea better.

Also, how's the "loose leg" thing working?

The nylon spacer is from one of those little cardboard box drawers @ Ace. It looks kinda like a faucet handle insert? (I didn't note the name of the thing) If I were to use a neg post, I would drill an oversized recess in the top of the nylon spacer to accomodate the screw head. The loose leg idea is working flawlessly. I've taken the mod out and about twice and it always fires with the same intensity. I don't think its budged. (where would it go . . . . . . .to the library?)
