His design doesn't called for holes to be milled at 45*. It calls for slots to be milled in a single plane that will allow an axle to be positioned at 45* with respect to that plane. Then, he welds that axle in place and cuts it flush with the plate. Put rollers over the axles and then do the same for the other side -- weld and cut flush. No multi-axis milling is required.
The downside to the design is simply that it won't ever come apart again, so you can't replace rollers should you need to.
