wow, that's nice. Where did you come about those screws for the ti side?

Thank you for your comment!

They were home made.

Lapped blade pivot washer face and milled back spacer:

Cerakote removal was great, latest blade pivot lap elevated additional pivot smoothness and initial lock interface massaging, all in all, a completely different performing SnG.

That titanium is crazy cool! What did you use to anodize?

Very cool! Excellent work, as always.


Have any photos of the tool you used for lapping the pivot and keeping it concentric?

Red taps indicate where two sided emery goes, leading smaller od protrusion has a .0002" fit into blade pivot hole. Two different size to suite application. I am sure you got the idea.

Here goes:

Making similiar lap tool to lap new .015" thick phosphor bronze pivot washers to replace the oem teflon on my XM-18's next - among other things.

HTH's!
