I took these out cut the 90 degree end off a bit, then drilled the end to leave and indent for a metal ball to sit in. I also drilled the gib lock bolt the same to match the ball.

Dave,
I like that idea. Another task to add to the growing list.

Hi Ed,
It's not one of those little projects you don't really notice much for the work you put in, with this mod you really notice it strait up. All you need to do is to throw each part in the 3 jaw chuck on the lathe to machine off a bit and drill the indent.
Then just break up an old bearing (with a rag over it and hammer in the vise) to get some balls if you don't have some laying around.
