Milled out of aluminum. Current bushings fitted for 1/4” rod. Had these on a DIY trailer jack press. Upgraded the press and other tools. Worked fine on my Mathews bows.
$50

Do they have set screws to lock them along length of rod? Or just the pivot adjustment bolts?

No, there are not set screws to lock them in place on the rod. There really isn’t any need for that, as when there is a proper fit, and the finger is under tension from a properly aligned load, there would be no lateral pressure that would cause the finger to move. I also have a last chance archery EZ Press, And it does not have screws to lock it in place either. They are just not necessary

Gotcha, I built one with fixed fingers and don't like it, was thinking of how to convert it.

There’s a few different ways to do it. Here’s the method I used, and is why there is bushing inside the finger to accommodate a smaller diameter rod
