It's a trade off, the bigger the hole in the center the better it will squonk, but you get really thin sidewalls really fast. The only thing to remember is to lose the locknut before you adjust the pin. I got your pm turk, it's no biggie, I'll put a ss pin in for you.
It's a 6-32 screw, 1in long, but it's not something you really want to do yourself, it's a wicked PITA, drilling a hole in that screw.

TBev: 4mm bolts are a lot easier to drill. A big part of the issue is work hardening due to,the heat from removing more than 50% of the metal from the middle of a stainless screw. 4mm with a 2mm bore is easy and very strong.
Long ago GDeal asked me to make him a bunch of drilled 6-32 X 1". I did 20 and hung it up, I concluded that a drench system was vital for cooling. I destroyed dozens of 1/16" cobalt bits in the process.

I do them on a lathe, it's no problem, just a little time consuming. I've seen/heard people try to do it on a drill press or whatever, that I don't recommend.

Oh yeah this one's done too!
You were right about those buttins, I didn't think they were gonna look good until I made them, sure glad I did, I like them a lot.

Brown delrin button for the win! I'm dying to see the other 2.
See... The ashyness in the g10 blends in fine. Thanks for not painting the g10.

Lol... I just did 25 of the 4mm/2mm on my mill 1 failure out of 26. Pretty happy with that.
The g10 looks dope! And those buttons. ..damn, I like em. I'm gonna send this one out tomorrow and the next ones will follow, I'm not done with them yet. I'm trying to decide which one I like the best, it's tough, I'm saving the pics til they are both totally done.

Nope, Nope, I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something not quite right with this one. You need to send it to me for immediate inspection! 
It's those matching buttons, I didn't think they were going to look good at all....then I put them in.!

That bevel around the bottle hole would look cool if it were black also, at least I think it would.
Agreed but the way Cerakote is applied would make that very difficult and very likely to chip.
What's really cool is I have a TMod girl in 7068 that matches it exactly. I will post pics of them side by side on Facebook as ECF gets all spun up when I post pics of my TMod collection.Nope, Nope, I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something not quite right with this one.
