I recently tackled a home built pepper box and had a blast (no pun intended). After this however, I am eyeing the semi-auto home builds. I found a set of plans that seems fairly easy to build and is a design that I like.

(let me know if the link doesn't work)
However, the plans require the bolt be made from a piece of 1 inch diameter steel with the front half lathed down to 15mm. I don't have a lathe. I have tried thinking of ways to replace it with a simpler bolt of my design, but can't think of any plausible options.
So my question is if you guys have any ideas on ways to modify the design so that the bolt is a little easier to build?
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but any recommendations are welcome.
Thanks
