Well you certainly don't need to have these machined from stainless steel if you are determined to use this system. Even if you hunt in the rain a lot they are not going to rust out on you using regular steel. Nothing a little steel wool won't take care of now and then...... good luck...

I definitely wouldn't need them from stainless steel. I actually priced them made outta carbon steel and
they were still pricey. Got a handful of bows that I want to build. Mainly for the kids and I just like to keep everything the same as I'm use to. Been a long time since I've built much

One suggestion. For the OD threads, call out a chamfer on both ends to get rid of the sharp thread start.

Looks good. A little chamfer wouldn't hurt but I can do that before they are installed

I really don't think it's that important that these be made from stainless steel. I would think a local machine shop could turn out a bunch of these on a lathe at a decent price if you were not dead set on stainless steel. It's not like you have to worry about rust if you keep the bolts oiled, and use a bit of steel wool on the studs now and then, regular steel should be fine.

Good luck to you on this... Kirk
