Gates & Hinges 2

This will be a double gate that will mount on the columns I have built.  I took a 1 x 2 board and clamped it to my work area.  Then I placed my 1" PVC next to it and holding it firmly in place, struck a straight line down the entire length of it with a sharpie. Then I did the came thing with the service elbows so that when I glued the pieces together, they would line up correctly and fit in the hinges I built.

This step is very difficult and requires a very strong grip.  I marked off the spacing on my PVC tubes and drilled the holes you see here.  The hard part is holding the tube steady while turning the drill press through a round object.  It wants to roll in your hands, and you must fight it all the way.  After all of that, I still had to use my Dremel with a drum sander and open the holes a little.
