Not sure if you can build a fixture kit?
With the TE2100-EZ build kit, all you need is a drill press, a few basic hand
tools and only two days. Download the EZ Fixture Kit Instruction Manual Picture Book. The
Instruction Manual was written as a highly illustrated picture book to allow even
non-English speaking users to follow the process and build a precision fixture. Using the
methods in this manual it is possible to build a fixture to accuracies comparable to a CNC
milling machine using only a drill press and a few basic hand tools! Basically the
technique is to use a blank board as a drill template. Since the blank board was drilled
with a precision CNC drill, the results of using a drill press with the blank board as a
template will approach the accuracies of a CNC machine. The resulting fixture will have
enough accuracy to probe small 30mil diameter targets spaced as close as 50mil. Download
this 31 page instruction manual and see for yourself.
