[PROJECT] Spin Indexer Tailstock

[EdK]

Finally getting back to this project. I've drilled the hole in the body for the arbor to 3/4". That's my largest drill bit. Now I need to bore it to size which is .930". The body is 3.25" in diameter aluminum with a .375" wall thickness. I need to bore all the way through both walls to the .930" dimension. I've got one of those boring bars that uses a 3/16" square steel tool bit (see image below). One end has the tool bit at 90 degrees and the other end has it at 45 degrees. The length of the boring bar is 9". Way too long to use in the boring head so I was thinking of cutting the bar down to about 5" to use in the boring head and use the end with the bit at 45 degrees. Sound like a good plan?
