x2? .
I just looked at a plate diagram and then traced it on the plate. used a little grinder and a Roll-lock type sand paper wheel to smooth it out. worked great for me. it was a 100 plate i think. heck its been 3 years ago. it was smooth and at the very bottom it had a pointed tip. Would help to know what hp pump your workin with.
