I had a chance to experiment with a small milling machine and these are the parts I made. I really don't have any need for them.



They're generic puller arms [bellcranks?] they will fit a 5/16th" square shaft. The rod holes are large enough for a 1/8th rod. Each one has a stainless steel cap screw. They are all slightly different, I didn't try to make them exactly the same. And they could use a litte polishing. There are 17 in all, probably enough for an S-10 guitar. 35.00 and a couple of bucks for postage.

Was this your own milling machine? Is it a CNC mill or the crank-your-own type? I've been looking into building a CNC machine for myself to build some parts.

If that's your machine, how would you feel about milling some parts for me?

Gary, it wasn't my machine, I'm not a machinist. It was a small manual "mini mill", they cost about 400.00. I made these as sort of educational project, to learn a little about this work. A pro could have done a much nicer job, but I'm sure these are totally funtional.

I did learn quite a bit, and spent enough time at it to figure out some of the basics. I just thought there might be someone out there who could use these.

Sorry I can't help you.
