I mailed the adapter template to my father and ordered a piece of aluminum plate (15" x 23.6" x 2.2") to be delivered to his address. He's helping me out by machining the adapter. While that's going on, I thought I would post a photo of an important tool for acquiring accurate measurements .
This is an 8" digital caliper made by Mitutoyo. With it, distances, diameters, widths, drops, etc. can all be measured with precision (if used properly). This tool was instrumental in creating the template for the adapter.
