earbogast Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I was just now getting ready to screw the hole through my leg and chop block and the instructions I have say to make it 1 1/2". But it seems too big because I measured my screw and it is only 1". Am I missing a supplement or maybe they changed the size of it? I'll hold off since some of you may have the smaller screw and what size you made the hole. thanks,Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewoodwhisperer Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Make sure you have the latest installation instructions directly from Benchcrafted. We try to keep up to date but their changes to the product line are frequent. So it's always a good idea to make sure you have their instructions for the hardware installs, and then make those gel with the Guild videos.

earbogast Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Ok, was wondering though if anyone could post their screw size and what size they made the hole. I haven't got a response from Benchcrafted yet. They may be closed. That way I can see if mine is smaller or the same size. Hate to wait till next weekend to do this part.Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewoodwhisperer Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I might be mistaken but I'm pretty sure they only make the smaller screw size now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earbogast Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Thanks, I don't know how many different ways I can measure it but my screw comes out at 1". So I made my hole 1 1/8 inch with the same clearance you would have got. Seems ok, I'll finish tomorrow and see if I have any problems. Funny but I can't find anything at Benchcrafted to update it. I better take a pic tomorrow to show you I'm not crazy. Thanks though.Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
