O-ring seals - Help Needed

[redboat219]

Hi All,
I want to fabricate my own bulkhead seals. I have some mini O-ring from Tamiya.

I have access to a lathe and milling machine. Hope somebody out there could help me on how to do it. Thanks.

I have not used them,

[color=#000000]I have not used them, but the general idea is
find threaded rod of a size that is larger than the o-ring
diameter and drill out a center hole where the pushrod ca go thru
then find a capped nut for that threaded rod, drill thru the cap
(or better put nut on thread and drill thru both at once)

insert o-ring in nut and screw nut onto threaded rod.
