Looks good.
I'm surprised you didn't polish it to a mirror finish!

Jonny, I get you now... The length is exactly that of the plastic one. Barrel was proud on that too.
See what you mean on the undersized bit. I haven't checked to see if the plastic one was the same.... But I made the button to the external measurement and only just skimmed it while adding the finishing cut!?
Was fun to make and will be received well I'm sure. :scratch:
Not bad for a first try though. Not my usual machining zone. Good to challenge yourself a little now and then. The cutting part is easy, it's the planning that took the time :dremel:
Definitely not a job choice, all works "dun for fun" :beer:
Roger....Nice to know you still want to see that elusive mirror finish :) I very nearly gave it a go. But decided function won this time.
Sometimes you have to leave the tooling marks so they know you were there :thumbup:

Jonny:
Last job gaffer would have expected job done in 3hrs tops, with only a lathe, vice and files, lug type extractors precision fit no tolerance when polished 4hrs.

You're losing me there a bit Jonny.
Maybe a picture? :thumbup:
