Roger... I think you took the right course. He did us a great favor even trying to make these and it is better to have them without the knurling versus having nothing at all. You also want to keep everything on great terms as it sounds like he is going to get some of these other mount projects going for you. I'm excited to see what is next. Fingers crossed for H&H rings to go with the bases you made a few years back. I'm always super thankful for all the items I've been able to get from you over the years! Thanks so much and have a blessed Christmas and wonderful New Year!
