Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Flexible Couplings

Brain Fart! Why not fabricate a 'bellows' type of flexible coupler from
thin brass shim stock... Just make a forming die set to make the 'dish'
(like trapezoidal hats) shapes, and solder the dish shapes back to back and
front to front, stacked as many as required for the desired effect. Solder
brass bushings on either end... Voila! Or not???
