Do you already have the tube(s)? If yes, what inside diameter are they?

Thank you, sir! I'm waiting to get the guard so I can measure the diameter.

Heres a quick set of pics and description of how it was made
Cad drawing first then tool paths applied
This part was quick and easy 20201019_072550.jpg

Then a piece of aluminum was found for it, couldn't find a close size round piece so we made it out of a square piece. 20201020_101419.jpg

Next, it gets roughed out with a 3/4 3 flute end mill. Lots of material removal but it goes fast 20201020_105243.jpg

Heres the roughed out part ready for final tool paths 20201020_114539.jpg

After the mill, I put it in the lathe mainly because it was quicker than making soft jaws to run op2 in the mill again. Face the back of, get it round and tune up where necessary 20201020_120329.jpg

Final product comes out looking like this, ready for the polishers. Probably not going to need too much polishing. 20201021_073711.jpg 20201021_073756.jpg

Your part will be in parker on friday!
