I guess if I do end up tryi ng to make another cap, the trick will be the .350" bore and flat face inside. Might have to actually make a rose cutter or something to cut that.

Make a miniature boring bar. The flat bottomed hole, use a modified two flute end mill as a boring bar, face off the bottom of the hole from the centre.

Maybe just a homemade square ended D-bit would do it, after drilling undersized?

It's raining and will for a couple days, and I've called the traactor guy twice with no answer. Seems like a perfect rainy day project....
