Bolt knob installation

Send your bolt to: http://www.smithtac.com/gunsmithing.html

Cost for the (Badger Ord) handle & installation is $85 before tax & return shipping.
 
not a bad price,

From what I have read the only other ways is to attack your bolt with a grinder and try to make it round so you can thread it.

Or one guy lathed a small piece of steel threaded it and tiged it to the end of the bold handle.

That is from the customer review section.
 
Well I don't think I would use a grinder...

The two ways that I have seen are;

1- building a fixture to allow you to hold the bolt in a chuck and then turning and threading on the lathe.
2- using a boring head on a mill to mill the knob to the proper OD and then using a die.
 
tiriaq does them too...
