Yeah, I'm not really sure what this tool does that a 1" wooden dowel from Lowes for a few bucks wouldn't do. I mean it seems like a nice tool, but not really worth paying much for. If it was $10 vs $5 for a wooden dowel, I could see where it would be worth it, but at $85, the wooden dowel, or even a piece of 1" round bar steel for a few bucks at Lowes or Home Depot is a much better option imo.
True enough --
if you can find a t
ruly straight dowel.
Set up a pair of V-blocks and spin a few: straight ones the length of a rifle barrel and receiver are rare (and ones that
stay straight more rare yet!).
Steel or aluminum (after checking for straightness in the V-blocks) is the way to go...
