With th exception that out solid UHMW cores are smaller the construction 
is now the same as making a Fellwalker style blunt. 

For our UHMW blunts the UHMW rod is 1.25" in diameter and the blunts 
itself is 1" long with 1/2" of solid UHMW in front of the shaft and 1/2" 
deep socket for the shaft.

A heavy or Fellwalker blunt the UHMW rod is also 1.25" in diameter but 
the blunts itself is 2" long with 1 full inch of solid UHMW in front of 
the shaft and 1" deep socket for the shaft.

Our light blunt cores look like this

Fellwalker blunt cores look like this

So use our light UHMW cores and pd them like a Fellwalker with the 
sidewrap.  You can find good instrctions for Fellwalker bolt 
construction at:

Just skip down to the padding section.
