Todays Project - What did you do today?

[Mayhem]

I made some new shoulder bolts for the bump knurler on my mates lathe.  The soft Chinese ones had worn out and the result was a smear, rather than a knurl.  I picked up some O1 and milled the hex and then turned the rest.  Heated them to cherry red and quenched them in some old oil.  I then heated them to the point where the oil burned off and let them cool.  I had to use washers, as the holes were countersunk for some reason. The thread is M6x1.00 and the hex is 8mm.

After heat treating - compared to the original worn out one
   
All done!
