Two pairs of metal

[Misterpink1986]

Here are my selfmade metal chucks. I could need some tips for both pairs.

I used wine corks for both ends, but I'd like an alternative for the chain end. Do you have any ideas what I could use?

The other pair are my homemade t-swivels 
I'm not sure, I think the screw I used is to long or to thin, or maybe both. Any advices from experienced t-swivlers ?

Thanks in advance

For your 1st pair you could try a rubber stop used normally to go over chair legs to stop marking a floor. They come in all different shapes and  sizes. You could try to find some that are maybe slightly too small and hammer them over the chuck assuring a secure fit without having to use glue.

For example... http://images.cougarpartscatalog.com/dc/1000772/1000772_(3)-1028.jpg

Cut a hole for the chain.

Nice idea, I'm afraid the cork won't last very long

I'm gonna try it, thanks

on the black nunchaku chain seem rusty, old and heavy.
for the  t-swivels; chain diameters are toll and thick. use more thinner chain.Try ones wit dog chain. Really

It is, I found it in a tool chamber in our garden
But I bought a new chain meanwhile, it works much better and my hands don't get dirty any more

how did u make the t swivels?
did u go craftman mode and melt metal and stuff?

[Misterpink1986]

Magic 

Nah, with a saw, a hammer and a file 

I will  make a DIY when I find the time, but I have to try something out first. There are new ideas for improvements since I used some real t-swivels
