Is it a bitch to set that flycutter up to the right radius? I have some machining experience but haven't done any boring or stuff like that.

Sick work Aaron, i dont know you you find the time man. Thats awesome that you take the time to post up as well. I love those fly cutters, If you use them right and do a climb cut you can get a real nice finish on cuts of a few thousandths. they arent that great for removing any significant amount of material. When you went for the Center of the TB, did you just indicate from the edge and just move the mill half of the measured distance from your caliper?
Final product looked great !

The only question I have.... you centered up to the existing hole, that you said wasn't very true. Why didn't you center up to the center of the bolt pattern, rather than the center of the hole?
...it's probably splitting hairs though.
