Description
This replaces the vacuum hose mount and allows you to attach a 8mm rod for more flexible accessory mounting.
Required hardware:
M3 Ultrasert II Heat Inserts - https://www.mcmaster.com/94180A331/
M3 Set Screw - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5Y1Y4ZD?th=1
8mm Stainless steel rod - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5QHC1DS
Optional
Dial Test Indicator Clamp - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08352ZCJF
Set the Heat insert from the top down into the rod holder. Cut your 8mm rod to the desired length and to prevent rotation, grind a flat into the rod, aligning it with the M3 insert when installed into the mount.
