i have both but 20+ years of carpentry taught me not to run my blades/bits into metal

actually i would have put h2 wheels on if i could have someone else do the machining so i am interested to know what it might cost also...just dont think i would be comfortable doing it myself.

There are some people on here and other forums that have done it, YES it will eat up a bit but it does work. I have a link to a DIY but it is on another Forum

I got mine done by a guy with a CAD setup mill.. Took him about an hour, and he charged me $20.. I paid him $40 though. I did have a set of wheels bored out for my Nissan a while back, and the guy did it on a lathe.. He charged me $100 for the set.
