You're just making awesome stuff, and i do want to mention that and to let everybody know that your selling price is practically a giveaway price, Only if someone realized how much effort you have to put in to making ONE DAMN PIECE at those quantities..
Automated machines can make 10000's of pieces of the same thing but it needs very specialized tooling and skills to make one manually.. Great Work i might copy your nipple idea though :na: j/k

Looking good... are you turning those then parting off hows that work?

for the tapered ones i turn it down then cut the taper until the taper meets the beam hole and it parts itself off from the material im using.

The normal flat ones i part off with the parting tool :)
