Exactly. Start a sale thread. (more than a suggestion)Well, you coulda shined them up better! All kidding aside, they're beautiful!
It's what any Mopar lover would do if they had machining capabilities.
I'm planning to make a set just like that for mine. You should take orders
on the Forum and make a few bananas?

3/8 NPT THANKSStainless so hard to machine. Would aluminum do the trick all right? Great job on them for sure! What are those thread sizes off hand??
Love the installation tool. Thinking about making one of those tools for my antenna.
SS isn't all that hard to machine....but it is tough and when machining it lightly, you'll get 'strings' instead of chips. If the finish isn't good, turn up the rpm a bit or you need a better cutter. SS doesn't like rounded tooling but likes a sharper cutting tool. Some SS is gummy while the higher grades isn't so gummy so use some coolant or cutting oil on all of it. When threading SS with a die.....use plenty of lube and go slow but I've had better results single tooling it. If you single tool it, the same applies as if you are machining it......and it's a good idea if you practice if you've never done it before.Stainless so hard to machine.
