Marples Holdfast Help
Regan in Kitchener Ontario
>Hello all, I just bought a new (well it was made years ago but has spent years on a shelf in a store) Marples M146 holdfast.
The trouble is the shaft of the holdfast does not fit through the supplied mounting collar. It seems to be the excess green (yes Marples green thats how old it is) enamel on both parts. Now before I take a file to it, does anyone know of any better or less "brutal" ways? Or am I a complete hack and it fits if only I would put it together correctly?
