After building custom motorcycles for over 18 years, I've accumilated some great machinery. Luckily, I can make stuff like this for myself, instead of buying right out of a catalog, or having the exact same thing as the guy shooting next to me.

That looks really good - wish I knew how to work metal, it would save me a fortune.

I used to do custom fabrication and know all to well how tedious it is to get hand drilled holes spaced perfectly. Especially when they're different sizes, and on a odd shaped piece.

Re: Custom Bolt & Bolt Knob
Holes are great....set back ok...and imho could not have been better planned.
Do some more great things, thats what is nice about have some "cool" tools.

Re: Custom Bolt & Bolt Knob
The end of the bolt looks like the end of a barrel with a thread protector on it, was that the look you were going for / match the rifle it is on?

Re: Custom Bolt & Bolt Knob
First thing Ive seen in awhile that caught my eye. I like that its unique. All of the other "custom" bolt knobs really look alot alike and all the same. Nice work.
