Any tips or tricks for screw-on bolsters and handle material? I've got some stag, some 416 stainless, some 3/16 threaded standoffs and some screws. I'm thinking mock the whole thing up with 3/32 pins, not glued. Then drill out the tang holes for the standoffs, then heat treat. Then prep the handle material, countersunk on the outside for the screws, countersunk a little on the inside for the standoffs. If I mock it with the 3/32 holes, those holes should serve as pilots to keep my bigger holes aligned, correct?
