z-studding-tie

I made the 3 z-studding ties.  These were made out of 74 mm x 24 mm blocks 3/4 inch thick.  I started by drilling two 5.4 mm holes, one in each end.  I drew two lines from the opposite corners to find the exact center where they crossed.  These are about 30 mm deep.

Next, I cleared two rectangular holes through top and bottom.  The location of the first is (x, y) is (10, 8 ) – (32, 16).  The location of the second is (42, 8 ) -(64, 16).

I put a small screw through one end to hold a nut in place, then a longer screw and nut to make the adjustable end.
