  1. Why do you make the pockets for the profiles like that? Thin aluminum out where the force of the profiles would go through? Fit is very large, profile seems to have 1mm space on all sides in the pocket. Maybe its because i only see part of the mechanism.

    1. ah is it for easier assembly so that you dont have to hold the profile when screwing in the screw from behind?

    2. It only looks like there's a large clearance between the pocket and the profile because of the chamfer around the pocket. It's actually a very close fit. It's just for alignment, there's going to be a similar part on the other end of the assembly

  3. Is that the original spindle? ATC?

    1. I added a Mechatron ISO 10 ATC spindle adapter so I can quickly do manual tool changes and keep tool offsets.
