See note in Rec.woodworking

I like that, works with any size bushing or base, seems like it would make
the adjustment easier. Now to rec.ww to get the details.

I'm thinking it would be easy enough to turn one from hardwood on the
lathe...

I did this. I was interested in using a 1/4 inch chuck for other
reasons so made mine this way. It seemed too limber to move the base
to center while under tension, so I had a friend turn me one out of
steel. If you made it to fit a 1/2 inch chuck hardwood would probably
work.



I've always used a dovetailing bit for the smaller guide bushings.
