Got'r done!
Well, it's usable anyway. The thumb screws are too small to get a good grip on so I'm going to make some larger heads and press-fit them onto the existing heads. Ed  Thanks given by: EdK

made this screw today, its for a puller that I am making the taper on it will cause the jaws to close on what you are pulling off. it still has to be trimmed to length after I get the cross bar made.

Dallen, I had to look for the "taper" , I found it on the threaded side of the knurled "knob".
As far as I can see it's going to be a puller of very distinct length. I have a couple of pullers that use the taper idea to close the jaws but the pressure screw threads into the tapered "jaw tightening " screw. I notice a hole in the end of your screw, will that be for the puller (pressure) screw or just for a pointed "pilot" center? I'm going to the shop right now to check on my feeble , beer addled mind.

yes the pressure screw will fit into the hole you see in the end, only it will screw in from the knob side. I am making it to use on clock movement so I doesn't have to be very big. its primary use will be to remove the hand from the center shaft of the movement.
I saw one on ebay and figured that I needed one without the cost and that I could make it better looking. It will be a couple days before I do anything else as I have my mill tired up with a part that I don't want to have to redo the setup on and can't finish it till I go to town and hopefully find a carbide drill or endmill the right diameter to cut thru the casehardening. Any way it was fun to make and its was something that the doctors wouldn't get to po'ed at me about after having a heart attack on monday, don't want to mess up the stint that they put in.
