It's not as simple as it seems.
1) produce bolt
2) find supplier to produce PROPER extractor
3) peen bolt
4) send bolt out for heat treating (hope heat treater knows what he is doing)
5) inspect bolts on return
6) polish and clean bolts that pass inspection
7) send bolts out for surface coat (ion bond, hard chrome, ceramic coat, whatever)
8) inspect bolts on return, toss those that don't pass
9) bevel ejector edge
10) wait for proper evtractors, wait some more, and some more....
11) polish extractor edges
12) assemble bolts with ejector/extractor assemblies
13) toss out of spec assemblies after assembled
14) sell remaining bolt assemblies, find you barely have enough for company production
15) order more parts, cut more bolts
Oh yeah....hire people to assemble bolts!
Hope that you find someone local to do heat treatment and coatings...I'm guessing that isn't real easy in rural Iowa!
You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
