Hi hl,
Since the part is readily available to use to build your tool why would you go back to a drawing?
That seems like a step in the wrong direction.
If you need the spindle drawing to generate a tool drawing can't you do the spindle drawing yourself based on the actual part?
Regards,
Alan

I wanna have my shop turn one for me before I tear it apart, and use that instead of paying for the tool.

Which 'tol' are you checking?

Did you mean clearance?

You'll pay more to have the spindle tool made from scratch than it costs to buy one.

Find an old spindle and have the bearing surfaces turned down a few thou till the inner races are a slip fit.
