Hello,
I'm the creator of the spindle square, and I just joined the forums . If you have any comments or questions about the tool let me know

I'll be posting more around here, the place is full of interesting designs!

You requested comments...

Most of your video is a boringly long record of a CNC mill making a frame. Since you're a self-described youtube machinist, tailor your videos to an audience who doesn't know what you're making or why they should want one. Start by showing the finished product and explaining visually what it is and how it is used. Then, if you must, a few very quick clips of the construction of its parts and finally its assembly into the finished product.

For almost as long as mills have existed, machinists have used a single DI on an arm to tram the head. The procedure requires only a a single DI, is trivial to construct, and works well. The implication is that this design is better than the old method. However, it's more complex, more expensive, takes more time to construct, and requires matched DIs. Your video should address this issue and detail your arguments about how this design is an improvement over the traditional approach; this is the "why should they want one" portion of the video mentioned in the previous paragraph.

Finally, welcome aboard. I think you'll enjoy the time you spend on this forum as much as I do.
