Bald Eagle Arthritis Knobs/Hart Pedestal

[dalsmthme]

Does anyone know if Bald Eagle arthritis knobs will work on a Hart pedestal. I picked up a Hart pedestal with Sinclair wind-age top for cheap. The only problem is the t-handles are pretty beat and so was the hand wheel. I want to put upgraded handles on. The bald eagles looked like a good choice.

XP100,
Bill has been out of business for a couple years or so. The screws that screw into the base and the sliding sleeve have standard 3/8"x16 thread on Hart, Bald Eagle, and Sinclair. Is that what you are asking?

Thanks for the info about Bill. He asked me at one time if I was interested in buying him out, which I didn't want to. I tried to email him about a new rest with no reply. Now I know, thanks again Butch. All have a great weekend!!!

.I can make you new adj knobs/handwheel for yer rest if needed....

 

[dalsmthme]

Yeah, I just got word from Allied Shooter Supply that Bald Eagle is out of business, bummer.

xpfuzz, do you have pictures of knobs? I have a new sinclair hand wheel already, but looking to add some knob bling,sounds bad). Sinclair wants $30/handle, too steep for me. I might just have to plastic dip the ones I have.

Never mind, I looked at your pictures from the other page. How much would you get for a set of knobs like you have on your rests. On top of that, what would you get for two leg screws with lock nuts?

 

[dalsmthme]

Actually I guess those are JD's knobs, I will have to get in touch with him.

Heres` a pic of a rest with them in it,,don`t have a pic of them seperate...Are you referring to the tightening knobs that you loosen and tighten to raise and lower the top???? If so mine are knurled aluminum with stainless studs in them...

 

[dalsmthme]

Thos look nice. I am interested in the the primary rise bushing and the hand wheel lock knobs. I am also interested in two of your leg knobs and lock nuts. How much $$ would you want.

 

[xpfuzz]

PM sent...

You can pick up standard lengths of threaded shaft and various styles of "arthritis knobs" from McMaster Carr and fabricate your own for minimal expense.

Can I use the leg knobs and adjustment handles on my new Sinclair rest? If so, how much would it cost for the 3 knobs and the 2 adjustment knobs ?
