    modifying my R8 collet rack

    I made this collet rack many years ago but not thinking I would one day need to increase its capacity I had made the holes on a particularly wide spaced pattern, but not a pattern well suited for maintaining Cemetry when the need would one day arise to add more positions.
    This afternoon I decided to make the best of what I had available short of completely making a new rack. I still have the tramming riser blocks bolted in place, which worked out great for adding additional holes

    No need to move the table just slide the plate and re clamp using a tri square for proximity positioning
