Does anyone have a drawing for a Badger tactical bolt knob. Ive got the use of a CNC lathe whenever I want it so Im thinking of making one for my 700. I kinda know this is a bit of a breach of copyright but I couldnt see badger taking a case against a guy doing something that looks like theres as a once off. Thanks

It's *roughly* 1" diameter at rear, 1.5" long, rounded rear and tapered towards the front.

Its a conversational programming Cnc but I cant see it accepting those words.

Agreed. As far as dimensions, you ought to be able to figure it out from what AZ gave ya, he explained it as best as could be done without giving you a drawing or a program.

I got it done in the end. I was just wondering what the radius was and the machines parametres work out the coordinate to the centre point. Thanks guys.

If the Chinese do it all the time(copyright violations),I suppose an Irishman can get away with doing it just once.
