I have ordered an extra small milling bit as a last resort, it should be here today or tomorrow. I will try and put three equally space gaps in the centre post which should solve the leaning centre post problem.

Good Luck @JakesSA
Hope you manage to come right!
Looking forward to hearing the good news. ;)

You are a champion!
 
Drains hole on both sides and, for a change, I have lots available for modding .. even black ones. :)
 
I'll add stock first thing in the morning.

In case you wondering how this was eventually done, I hollowed out the first 1.5 mm of the centre post, since it's actually quite thick at the base, and machined a shallow groove around the centre post screw (where the exit holes are). This creates a +- 1.3mm juice channel inside the centre post when assembled so that the holes in the screw and centre post do not have to line up. The centre post picture has one drain hole cutting through because I was in a rush and the drill drifted. They should both look as the drain hole on the far side.

I also replaced the copper adjusting screw at the bottom with a larger thread diameter stainless one so that I can drill through it and still maintain adjust-ability (not pictured).

Great work. Thanks. I shall order one first thing in the morning.
Wait...it is already morning!
 
All good, I only add bf options if I already have some pre-made in stock. The workshop machinery are going to be humming this weekend. :)
 
Wow @JakesSA - that is a great piece of work you did
Well done!
