Default RE: Home Made Strut Clearances

Thanks Guys,

R8893 - so you are saying that 0.002" felt sloppy? Wow! They are close tolerances. I don't have a lathe so was hoping to find tubes that would telescope well enough not to worry about it. Maybe i'll have to find someone with a lathe!

here is a video for you all http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDZ1ACo0Fhc

any mechanical engineers out there to shed some light?

Thanks!
