Thanks Rick, but that's not in our wheelhouse

These little parts just need to be ground on one end due to imperfections in the die. It's an easy job, and they have 350,000 of them to repair. For those who don't know, coldheading is basically smashing steel into a die so it takes the shape. This is how many fasteners are made, but these parts are more complex and precise.
