using a mill is a PITA to make D-slots, he had to use a mill because of the thickness of the material if you use 1/16" allum you can get a greeley punch and they are butter.

aha thanks for the info.
Sorry for the retarded questions.

I only have 0 experience with milling

Did you mill out circular rebates on the external surface for the threaded lock posts? It does not appear so.

Often failure to do so with a case wall thickness such as a die cast case with rear mounted D connectors results in the plug not mating fully with the socket due to the raised pillars. Pin->socket contact is reduced to the point of either "just mating" or intermittent mating.
