    Machining a throw lever for a Leupold VX-5HD - a question for those who have one.

    With it getting increasingly hard to import anything, and the weather and water not really playing ball for hunting or spearfishing, I've been pottering around on the CNC router.

    I've designed a throw lever for my Leupold scope, but want to know from others that have throw levers installed, just how thick they are?

    I test cut in 3mm acrylic, as I had some lying around, and now want to cut the real one in acetal. As I'll need to buy the acetal sheet, I want to know if all the other throw levers out there are 8mm thick or thinner / thicker?
