A little side project in the shop was to upgrade the lighting. Originally there were ten eight foot dual high output fluorescent lights. They worked well but buzzed pretty loud on cold days and sucked power. Converted the same fixtures to LED, bypassing the ballast. Result no buzz, 30% more light and 65% less power!Next problem to solve was to figure out a way to drill a 1/16” hole in a 1/4 x 1” piece of round stock. Pictured is a halfback inch plate with a 1/16” hole drilled in it. All I was trying to do was drill straight on one axis. It took me three try’s with a cordless drill to get it right.Then I scribbled a line down the side of the plate and drilled a hole intersecting the 1/16 “ hole dead center. That hole is the same diameter as the 1/4 stock.Then I centered the 1/4 “ stock and drilled the 1/16” hole.Perfecto! Two pieces with perfectly centered holes.These parts are for the adjustable pedal levers. The pins fit into detents and hold the rudder pedals at the desired position.
