    Smaller chainring bolts

    Sorry guys, I wasnt looking to irritate any one. just trying to see other sides instead of just mine:) Def understand the cost effective side of things:) On a side note if you guys want titanium sheet for cheap, try your local scrap yard. I picked up a 4'x4' .065 6-4 sheet for 40 bucks the...

    Smaller chainring bolts

    Not to be argumentative, but in the case of a all titanium folder and handle screws I don’t think that that would have very much bearing on the situation? I could be wrong but I don’t see a need for more than maybe 4-8lbs of torque on those and I don’t foresee 100’s of lbs of shear or tension...

    Smaller chainring bolts

    ? not sure what you mean? the screw on screw action (no pun intended:) or what I was talking about with an all titanium knife? I have used titanium chainring bolts and not had any trouble with them galling?

    Smaller chainring bolts

    :( bummer. You guys have galling issues with the titanium in the lathe? or just cutting threads?

    Smaller chainring bolts

    I don’t know if it would be worth the time to make custom one since there are so many 8-32 and 6-32 screws available. I personally would be much happier to purchase just the female side since I have a bunch of the males anyhow I can’t speak for everyone else though.
