Version 2 of a gun sight part for dallen. He asked me to make the cylindrical sections 1/4" longer on each end. This time I milled the first side round along with the oval shape (with angled flat) and the .03" radius notch in the first operation before going to the lathe for the second side. Turned the second side, bringing in the face of the .250" wide oval, added the Ø 0.315" bore. Back to the mill for the Ø 0.251" reamed hole and the 0.151" wide slot through. The slot seemed to come out at about 0.1535"-0.154", so I'll compensate on the mating part width.
Near enough to perfect for me, hope it's good enough for dallem.
