Will see how they turn out with the flutes, I can make em in 26mm too, the one for the maxi was 26mm rod turned down with the ends drilled 100 mm in. I could drill right through but they are light and stronger if solid in middle for us bigger guys i figure.
Got some more rod to make some 330 mm long posts with flutes pictured.
If they turn out ok I'll take orders


I'll polish one up and put a pic up if I can get a decent shot.
