| Scale D-ring
My attempted at making one.... I heated up brazing rod till i could bend it to the shape i needed. I took the ends and heated them up till it started to puddle, let it form a ball, then pull it out of the heat fast. take a hammer and hit it to flaten the sides. Dill and tap. My pin is a 4-40 screw that i took and put a big ball go braze on the end, then grinded the sides to give it the flat, pin still Im going to try and make some more, For a 1/6 scale rig, it looks close he it is next to a nickle |
