OK, let's see if you can work out what I have been doing in the workshop all evening.
First I made this

Then this

Then I made this bit
[attachment=4:2nc6l6oc]P1000883.JPG[/attachment:2nc6l6oc]
The spring (which I didn't make) goes on here
[attachment=3:2nc6l6oc]P1000884.JPG[/attachment:2nc6l6oc]
They then drop inside that bit
[attachment=2:2nc6l6oc]P1000885.JPG[/attachment:2nc6l6oc]
The end cap goes on
[attachment=0:2nc6l6oc]P1000886.JPG[/attachment:2nc6l6oc]
All finished off with the ball on the end
[attachment=1:2nc6l6oc]P1000887.JPG[/attachment:2nc6l6oc]
Yep, it's a spring loaded 'hold open' pin for my wheel carrier.
Rather pleased with it. Could have been a bit smaller, but I need some different tooling.
