I use an annular cutter to get rid of that old knob....

They are threaded 5/16-24 to match badger.....but you can do whatever pitch you want. Just blast and cerakote and call it a job!

Well carp, its all coming together..... slowly. I have put off buying guns and such (hard for me) to get the finishing touches to kick this baby off. It took longer than I wanted to gather all my eggs, but trying to do it with cash instead of credit when you are just a working class Joe with a family is no easy task.....but its coming together nicely.

I bet that stuff is not cheap! I bet your investment will pay off in the long run! I will have to dig around and see If I might have a couple for you to do later down the road. I am sure there is a few guys that would love to have you put one on there bolts!

You know the big machines are pretty expensive, but when you put an order in to ptg or manson and the bill is $700.00 and it all fits in a book box......that is where the $$ goes bye bye. I dunno if I will ever even try to go full time, but it gave me a hobby that used my skills, and I am not so worried about a guy stealing my #4000 lathe as much as the 15 rifles it would have been.
I do spin the knobs myself, although if a guy with a cnc wanted to earn some $$.......I would love to skip that step.
I get $50 for a raw knob install and $75 gets you a knob installed and the bolt cerakoted graphite black. I can do any color, but at $40 a 4oz.bottle, I don't stock many colors.
