    Hmm making a piercing blade and the corresponding recovery tube for a PA is not a job I would have thought of. Making a pa bar or ring would a hard task-but the balls for the ends would be ok. Maybe a "princes wand" (go on google it)would be a good lathe job-esp as good ones need to be custom fitted

    Might need some longer bar stock.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
