HAHA, extremely HIGH tech. I turned the copper cap upside down on a spark plug and used the brass knurled nut to hold it in place so I could use the spark plug as a handle. Then I slowly sanded it on my Harbor Freight 5" https://www.harborfreight.com/1-in-x...der-69033.html to the length I liked. I used fine disc and an even finer belt. I cut the bevel at the bottom using the same. Then polished. The caps are cheap so experiment.
Seems I have way too much time on my hands but I had fun with this little project and they came out great looking.
I'm still undecided which I like better, the short or long.
