snip>PS, on building your own Omniturn or Upgrade type slide....you could
eat a long ways into a $1000 bill just buying the main aluminum or
steel base plate after having it stress relieved, precision ground
both sides to thickness and squared up on four edges. Note, for the
average small shop those are all operations which would have to be
farmed out.

Doug, you are absolutely right about the above statement. I am right now making a bill of material so see if the MATERIAL cost can
be kept under 1000 bucks. I am not billing for my labor and I have a friend who is going to finish grind the parts for me after I
do the cutting.
I am looking at SAE 4142 Pre-Hard ground stock for most of the parts and I was hoping not to have to stress relieve them, or do too
much grinding. Anyone have experience with this? Any advice?
