I have cut them very slowly on a bandsaw. Hold them with vise-grips, not your fingers! Use a push stick. I then true them up with a barrel facer (Brownell's) If you don't want to spend for a facer, just file them square. The hacksaw is not really a bad route (and safer), just use the factory end against the action or lug and put your "custom" end toward the bottom metal. If you bed the bottom metal at all the squeeze-out will take care of any slight out-of-squareness. It's not worth your time or money to get someone else to do it.

I would be glad to make some for you. Email your exact specs and I will make you a set. I will make them on my lathe and mill. celt2000@skyenet.net Celt [This message has been edited by Celt (edited 02-20-2002).] | ||

For those who might like to do it themselves. Get some suitable tubing from the hardware store. They make some all thread kind of stuff for making electric lamps. Cut it a hair longer than you want. Chuck one of the pieces in an electric drill. Secure the drill in a vice. Turn it on. You just made an improvised lathe. File the end of the piece until it is square and even. Polish the end with sandpaper. It will look fine. [This message has been edited by scot (edited 02-20-2002).] | |||
