I have been thoroughly enjoying this machine since it arrived a few weeks ago. I've been busy adding a cabinet on it and have already realized that the cabinet isn't quite big enough for all the junk, uh accessories, that I have acquired.
I have been using a HoldFast Vacuum system on my midi, but wanted an adapter similar to the one Laguna offers. I cobbled together all the parts I need to assemble my own version sans one part. I, for the life of me cannot find any pipe that will screw into the headstock spindle on the hand wheel side.
Does anyone have a clue what the thread pitch and size is of the bore. I've tried 1/4. 5/16 and those are too small. I then tried 3/8's and it is too large. Is this a special size that Laguna came up with to frustrate DIYer's like me.
Maybe I should have bitten the bullet and bought their version for $89. I know that's a bargain compared to others, but I thought I could save substantially by doing it myself.
Can anyone help?
