Summary:A method and a machining kit (40) for machining a bore hole (24) into a shroud block (22) are disclosed. The method includes designating a location (42) of the bore hole (24) on an exterior surface (44) of the shroud block (22), positioning the shroud block (22) in a machining device (60), securing the shroud block (22) in the machining device (60), and machining the bore hole (24) in the shroud block (22). The machining device (60) includes a locating tool (82), a machining tool (84), a platform (62), a securing device (64), and a radial support (66). The radial support (66) is configured to mate with a radial exterior surface (48) of the shroud block (22) such that a machining axis (72) of the machining device (60) may be aligned with a radial axis (70) of the shroud block (22) during positioning.
