Spent no more than a 1/2 hour in the shop today, not feeling well. Might be coming down with the flu that hit my wife for two & half days.
I made this nut for a shop that has an obsolete Valenite Rigidex boring bar, an early version of a De-Vibar. The nut is no longer available, so I got the print from the manufacturer (I have connections in engineering.) It's why I bought the 12" length of pre heat treated Ø 1" 4140.
See if you can spot what I consider to be a conflict on the print, and why I didn't make it to their spec.
