having worked out the sa of a 1/2" circle...

1/4" = .196/4 = .049squinches
1/6" (.166 or #19) = .196/9 = .022squinches
1/8" = .196/16 = .012squinches

I'm thinking of a modified cruciform formed by four cutout lobes.

I haven't done the calculation for 5/8ths.

0.625"dia=.3125"r
.3125 x .3125 = 0.09765625
3.14159 x .09766 = .3068 square inches per drilled hole

You'd need six such holes to get 1.8408
Change to an oversize bit to ease the edges on both sides,
and you'll get the 1.942 amount you need.

It would be mechanically simpler, and you could do it on a drill press!

I've heard that might be one of the causes for the great increases in asthma cases. I don't normally react to latex...I think I was tested for it when they did my allergy scan, but who knows?

Just remember, most of the states where the Rockies are, the ground is higher than the mountains in some places...elevated plateaus.

"what do you want for it?"

You've got to be kidding!

Surrender a tool ... permanently?

Besides, it's a cheapo I got from Home Depot for about a hundred dollars a couple of years ago.

It's also a step up from the contraption I got from Sears way back when that lets me use my half-inch drill in a sort of drill press.

*salivating* Tools ...
