Being able to get this working tonight after having our milled square solution break on Tuesday was really great - it's nice not having to wait for additional parts (if we were to go with the 3/8" hex option, as we don't have any of that in stock, only 1/2") or switch to a different solution. Having these options presented like this really made it easy to understand and made my student's evening!
That's awesome! I'm so glad it worked out. Keep us posted if it holds up. I think we all know that feeling all too well when something fails and we must scramble for a solution. I think next year we should have an adapter available.
