Cool idea. If you want to drill a hole through the threads its actually pretty easy: you screw a nut on the bolt, then drill through the side of the nut and the bolt. The nut just serves to give you a flat surface to star the hole
Thank you, I like that idea I initially did want to do that but found it to be too difficult with the tools I had although I didn't try it your way, next project I will test that!
I love the look of these - the bolt crossing the circle like that is nice They're 1:1, so they're going to require a more force to turn them and will be harder to fine-tune than people are used to. But straight peg tuners without gear reduction have been used on string instruments for centuries. Nice solution.
if you add a third nut inside the circle, you can tighten 2 of them on each other and they will not move ever. you can then use the third one to be the one that pinches the string and only have to move that one as the other two are stationary.
Excellent question thank you for asking and being my first comment, before sticking the eyebolt all the way through I held them in the middle against the hole on the left side and twisted the eyebolt on until it reached the other side and then adjusted as needed. Let me know if this helps.
Thanks for giving it a shot and the feedback! I will admit regular tuners are easier but this is not meant to be compared to regular pegs this is the easiest way to do eye bolt tuners. Did you try using something for leverage or did they keep slipping out of the nuts?

Clever! A suggestion, put the high string on first to give yourself room to adjust the nuts without the other string being in your way.
Thank you! That would definitely be easier. Ill do it that way next time good suggestion.

Smart thinking 💡will try it out next time I take the strings off
Incredible video with amazing ideas. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much :)
Great Video !! one of the best !! thank you for your efforts. 2 thumbs up.
Thank you for the kind words :)
Woowho...nice. thanks
Thank you!!
Locking Tuners. 😊

This is great but how did you get the two hexi nuts into the hole?

@@-Jadon dough..... of course...
Tried this... Its real hard to tune... Think I'll stick to tuning keys

It stayed in tune... It was just hard to tune... Your ether way in or way out... No fine adjustment... It did look cool
