    Any frame I make down the road will have a built in mount in the frame, for now there will be a little bracket that can be screwed to the frame.

    It's for mounting. Luke made his cheatah specifically to fit and mount in his frames. The tab can still be used for other frames but a bracket has to be made.

    Yet, there are many more intelliframes and other frames out there. Just saying...

    I just machined an Intelli looks there wont be any issues, there was an area that concerned me but we're good after all. I'll have to clean up the tool path, got some chatter but that can be fixed. Purpose build frames will be so much cleaner.

    I have one idea that I have been kicking around as a solution to that but I am not willing to share it!
    Yeah, I noticed that. I'll probably make an insert the the LPR will be threaded into or one of my other ideas.

    I've got plenty of ideas, just a lack of machining capability.

    No. That does not breach the exterior of the frame. The diameter of that (deep) cut is only 3/8" wide.
    Ahh yes! I see that now.
    Cool!

    No reason to kick a guy in the "gentle(s)" over a miss spelled word! :spit_take

    Not sure if I'm less or more interested in this now...

    Ummmm..... Ouch?
