[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 216485, member: 7194"] James, Glad to hear your shoulder is doing fine...DO NOT REINJURE IT FOOLING AROUND WITH STUFF FOR ME....I have plenty of time. I wrapped that action up but Mr. don will have to do the transfer to you. I had been meaning to ask about that action trueing jig....as that is where most of my interest lies. I bought the gre-tan dvds for action trueing and bolt sleeving. I will send them with you to watch if you havent seen them. I got my mandrels and bushings in the other day. Maybe I do not have enough experiance, but I disagree with one step he uses. He is infinately more knowledgeable about such things, but why would he true the bolt up from the stock firing pin hole? I would want to indicate off of the rim that encircles the cartridge head then bush the firing pin in the center of the bolt face first. Maybe what I am thinking isnt even feasible. It seems that by indicating on the firing pin hole that is .004 out and cutting all surfaces to that reference that unless you put a truing cut on the inside of the rim that encircles the case head. I wouldnt think one would want to take any material from the bolt nose so it would be the best place to indicate from. But as I stated I dunno and am still a longway from actually chucking up a receiver. Guys, I have the machine leveled and have the electrician coming this afternoon to get his equipment list to wire in the phase converter etc. I have a buddy who works at the CO2 pumping station near my home who just offered to grout the machine to the floor for me. Before I let him do it, here is what he proposed. Drilling holes in the floor and setting pins around the perimiter then grouting the machine as it sits. Would this be sufficient? It is sitting on the screw levelers that thread through the base of the machine. I do not ever ever ever plan on moving this machine and it is free labor. What do you think let him do it? I am not thinking I want to move the machine at all in order to bolt since it is perfectly level right now. Should wait until I run the machine a bit before grouting it to the floor?
