Cool! Thanks!
I'm going to have to make a stop for my vise.
Nice to see machine projects. Nothing against Bullet Collators just no interest. LOL

Mal Paso means Bad Pass, just so you know.
I have made them like that, there are actually 3 trigger shoes in that ring waiting to be cut apart. Its a much faster easier way than in a mill with rotary table. When done it clamps to a narrow trigger and makes it a wide target style with little modifications or fitting. The holes around the outside are for set screws to hold it in place.
That is a slick way to make those ! & 3 at a time . Great idea.
Its much easier to measure the slots and radius, than one at at time. And in the time it takes to set up a rotary table. get the stock clamped down in place you can have 3 made On the lathe. Checkering file heads can be made in the same manner. The lathe dosnt require an special cutters either
Many products in industry are made with similar techniques. Where a profit has to be made more effecient, cheaper and better techniques keep a company in the black. Many tradesmen are trained to find those better techniques. I do it for the fun of doing it now but many years it was my livelyhood.
Same here HDskip, Tool and die maker for toughly 35 years. Its amazing what a .01 or .02 savings adds up to over a years time on a production line
You did a very nice job on those.
Thanks for sharing! I may have to make a few now that I know an easy way!
Nice work!

Thanks for kind words. It was worth sharing if someone can use the information.
Just fantastic skills.
