It is for the R8 drawbar of the drill mill. No CAD was involved, however. Edited By old mart on 05/06/2020 20:05:44

1779 forum posts 1 photos	A suggestion for the next one you make: It can be very helpful if you can feel where the head is - and this is not possible with the shaft left round. A pair of flats on the handle end will enable you to feel that the head is in line with what you are hitting, without needing to look. Wood handles are nicer anyway in cold weather, and are always made oval for exactly this alignment reason. Cheers, Tim Edited By Tim Stevens on 07/06/2020 20:59:42
