Thanks to KeithB for the freebie stuff, it turns out there were a pair of custom post ,64 model 70 bedding pillars hiding inside some of those aluminum rods. The skinny, long one will be cut to length for the tang and is turned .030" under for a 7/16" hole to be drilled with a center-cutting end mill. The front is .040" under 1/2". I put a phonograph-record finish on the tang pillar for extra grippage on the epoxy, which is why it looks terrible. The other one I did a different day and forgot to do that. I think they'll hold either way.
Hold on...figgering out how to resize pic on fone thingy
ETA, can't resize with Android, most of the apps no longer resize, so it's a pinko-commie plot to burn up allotted data on limited plans faster by sending 5MB images in text messages/emails instead of allowing the user to edit the photo on the fone. Glad I'm on wifi currently. So I emailed the photo to myself, downloaded it to my laptop, edited in paint, saved to laptop, logged in and now I can post it. Sheesh. Brad's gonna give me hell for for not getting an iDon't.
