    These bushings are a good lathe project. The major difficulties are cutting the thread to a shoulder, and timing the thread. I don't know how a gunmaker(smith) would time the thread, but I leave the .350 diameter head long, install the screw, mark it, then cut it to the correct length and slot it.
