- This cannot be done without the fancy jig, which we happen to have made. The target knob is popular with my clients. NOT a tutorial...we show what you need to learn, not how to do . Cannot perform at this level? Do NOT attempt. Support us: / anvi
I don't care what you are working, I love all the knowledge you have shared over the years. Thank you for the time you take to make all your videos.
Tip for home gamers: make absolutely certain your setup is secure before turning something like that. Lathes can throw surprisingly heavy things surprisingly fast. Had a mandrel at work let go. Threw 50lbs of aluminum across the aisle and hit another lathe hard enough to move it 6".
I've literally seen holes in workshop walls from apprentice machinists leaving the chuck key in place and turn the lathe on.
Mark is an artist I'm not trying to kiss ass but really he's one of the most talented people with his hands let alone gunsmithing that I've ever saw
Nice, angle grinder with cut off wheels and flap disc, tap and die set, also works! Done five that way. But nice work.
We have the gear so we use it. It only buys us some speed, your way is just as good, just sayin.....
That bolt spinning is the most pucker inducing thing ive see all week
It's nice to know I'm not the only person who finishes some threading work with a tap & die set.
Always......much cleaner work
Thanks guys, this is another absolutely brilliant video that makes your show such a pleasure to watch ... takes me back to my youth in the HVAC shop with my old man, playing on the the ol' South Bend. Keep on doing cool shit!!
As a complete stranger to lathe and mill work. That setup looked gnarly spinning on the lathe like that. At whatever rpm it was running at. Great job at the end of the day though.
Thanks Mark.....

Personally I've found the best knob to have is a smooth spherical knob like the old Mausers.
Absolutely the thing I want if I'm trying to run fast. And if I don't care about speed, I don't see where the shape makes much difference at all.
@@bBlaF It just feels better on the pulm of the hand than the edge of a barrel shape digging in.
@@bBlaFWell if your keeping your brass that kinda shape makes it easier to run the bolt one handed. I can in a prone position cycle the action on my Bergera B14 eject the fired piece of brass into my hand place that brass back into my cartridge box and then push and new cartridge into battery in 1 fluid motion. Over all the bigger knobs just make doing that a bit easier and add a little bit of personal flair to the rifle.
Its important that the end of your knob is round for maximum comfort
@@Johnny-jr2lq That's why I like the old Mauser knobs, they're not small like the others.
Thanks Mark... You're a testament to the statement "Sub Sailors do it better".
Only two reasons to ever do something like that: 1) because you want to; 2) because you can. 😉
Very nice threads Mark. The owner should be pleased.
Thanks for the demonstration.
Just a day in the shop.
It's claimed that the people who really struck it rich in the '49er gold rush, were the people who sold impedimenta to the prospective prospectors. Acknowledging, that it is your bread & butter to accede to the wishes of your clients, have you ever wondered how many squirrel tails can be attached to any one shooting platform? That grand repository of wisdom, Murphy's Law, must surely enumerate the Law of Nature violated when the weight of optional accessories exceeds the weight of the original item.
The spinning bolt of doom... 0~o It's like a Weed-Wacker on its side, I like it. ^~^
Nice machine work
Outstanding sir thank you for sharing this process with us six stars
Funny how when you go to a technical school to learn to be a machinist, you just get chunks of steel, and make what they tell you. Then you hit the real world, and you have to be a jig making fool to get your work done.
Yeah. AND served a 5 year apprenticeship to become a Journeyman and still felt lost at times after that!😅
Jigs and fixtures are a mixture of geometry and low cunning.@@machinistmikethetinkerer4827
Iv just done a similar mod to the charging handle on my Winchester sx3 . (used the one half of a moore and wright tap handle).Amazing what you can learn watching Mr Novac
You clearly love what you do
Very nicely done Gentlemen. Interesting jig for holding the bolt, bet you are very careful where you put your hands when the lath is running.

Did this with an angle grinder on a Savage. Twice. But Savage bolt handles are way easier and cheaper to replace if it goes wrong. Still working up my nerve to try it on my 700.
Finish with files.
Thank you Mark 👍👍
Thanks! It all helps!
Great work as always
Mark do you have a video on the build for your jig that holds the bolt?
Thanks Mark
God man show me how you made the jig.
Must be something about these knobs. Standard ball knobs always worked well for me.
You make the tooling just for this job or is this a common modification? Very nice job.
We do this mod a lot for the target/tactical crowd. Making the jig was worth the effort
Clearly it must be a popular mod if you've gone to the trouble of buying or making the jig, I imagine it would take quite a few of these mods for the jig to pay for itself.
Tactical bolt knobs are indeed very common for 700s… Or even just anything that isn’t the stock 700 knob!
What is the advantage of that new knob?
Nice job.
Мастер👍
Mark, is there a reason the new centerline is off from the main bolt lever ? Looks to be .100 or more.
Is your Remington Model 10a trench gun conversion video you had on youtube available elsewhere? Was it made a patreon exclusive? Or simply removed to not anger the youtube overlords?
Bravo.
That looks like a victor, but it looks to be doall grey. What kind of lathe is that?
Love the channel!!
Hope that work paid the light bill.
I can atest to gow aoft a Remington 700 bolt handle is as I anaped snaped one of my 700 the stump that was left behind looked like it was a casting.
👍👍👍
Man that’s a contraption, watch them hands!!!
AWESOMEEEEEEEEE
👍👍😯😯
You are a national treasure. If you were in England you would be knighted.
More likely he'd be arrested.
Looks like a milling machine job, but I guess you use what you have.👍
how so? it's easier to set it in a lathe fixture.
Can’t really see why anyone would want this done.
I did all this with a hacksaw, files, die, and a bench vise. It turned out beautifully, and it’s not that difficult.

How well will that knob work in a soft rifle case? Much less a scabbard. Nice job installing the ugliest bolt knob I have ever seen.
You don't have to use it
Probably the customers request, not his
