Never loose your thumb screws again, lock nuts inserted

how did you add them in or are they custom made?

It's Ass thumb screws. I drilled out the threads, and milled a seat with a 5mm endmill, grinded the locknut round, and pressed it in.

I've used them a few times now, and they work great. No need to tighten them hard, to only see that they unscrew them self anyway...

Yes, i can make these ones for $20 +pp, a set of 4 pcs. I know it's not so cheap, but I have to buy the quite expensive thumb screws, and lock nuts, and make all the work.
I have used mine for some time now, and they only get better and better, i love them!.

Contact me if you are interested

*EDIT* Miscalculated the price
