FWIW, I bought the last set of undrilled gear leg blanks off eBay this

all he had, except those. That being said, he still had several used sets

Dan,
Did you leave your leg thickness ( 1") the same, or did you cut then down to

Phil,
Structurally the added layer is not necessary but it will protect the real
