Keep in mind that's just a mock-up. The bolt will be much deeper in the V-blocks.

I dunno man, I'm just a grasshoppa here and am always listening but I see a plenty strong, straight, repeatable setup that goes together quick (now that I spent too much time making the parts, haha), has zero finicky or eyeballin' steps, and best of all, cost me nothing.

So in the most humble way possible I will defend that setup as functional and frugal.

"Vee" block I made about 15 years ago to hold bolt to cut for sako/M-16 extractors. Angled surface locates lug surface to set angle. Strap holds bolt ridigidly for machining. Set block in vise, cut slot. Turn block 90°, drill pin hole. Process takes < 45 minutes, no fiddlefűcking with indexers, threaded arbors, spacer blocks or multiple vee block. Good luck...
