You're gonna weld in the pins?

Nope - but I can see where the confusion crept in there Steve!

The pins are the last thing to actually make to finish off the assemblies. These will be a firm fit and then a set screw will be used to hold the pins in place.

Once that is done, I can fit the assemblies into the steady rest frame and ensure that all the rollers line up (there is a small amount of wiggle room built into the fit). Once I am happy, the small flange on the sleeves that are welded to the bottom of the assembly tubes will be welded to the frame.
