    couldn't tell by the picture even using a magnifying glass, for my old eyes
    most the people I know that make them use 3/8 otherwise they will bend easy

    I figured 3/8 would be to big. I'll make 3 more with 3/8 all-thread. Have a lot of that laying around

    Don't waste plasti dip on them. It won't bond to the metal well enough to protect anything. If anything it may contribute to rusting away faster.

    this is the design that some are preferring, so you don't have to line up your shot with the gig head ....the way I made mine also....I learn from others trial and error that do it all the time
