[QUOTE="marcochezzi, post: 974579, member: 21001"] Since the OTARI rear trident plate is screwed to the aluminium bracket as seen below, I had to copy this to my AKAI trident.. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/CzAUIkz.jpg[/IMG] This necessitating screwing down the reel plate onto the new machined part, then using super glue attaching the AKAI trident to the new machined spindle, in order to keep things still and located, and then drilling three new holes through the trident plate, into the new machined spindle, on a 16mm diameter, spaced 120 degrees apart.. So setup and centered on the mill and got to the drill, tap, drill, tap, drill, tap work.. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/zPdJ2X2.jpg[/IMG] and then removed the whole affair for the photo shoot... all fits good and proper, as I hoped it would... Left mine, right original..
