Finally getting back to this.

I got some 3/8" rod.

Heated up one end and upset it (it upset me a little at first, so we're even)

Turned it on the lathe to the proper dimensions

Drilled a hole for the retaining pin.

Now on to the swivel.

Finished the swivel. I don't know if anyone is interested, but here's how I did it.
