this link is great, thank you!
i again doubt that there can be any more variety on the eyelet market but in the past i was told the
opposite again and again.
the images of the form tools are very nice, they are like i expected.
i have no idea if the eyelets from reichelt germany have rolled or flat flange on one side.
does anyone know if the moving center spingle is spring loaded or set to a fixed length with a screw?
".. They may be used in any arbor press or drill press that will accommodate the 375-degree shank
diameter. .."
i suggested this already, seems they also think this is a option, i think a drill press is readily
available everywhere and there is no need for another press..
regards
stefan
