A simple project idea – Dead Drop spike

Make Online has a post about a Dead Drop spike that’s currently for sale in their Maker’s Marketlace. The maker, Brian Dereu, also has some other cool projects and things for sale there (Brian Dereu’s store). This seems like it would be a great simple beginner project on the lathe. A single bar of aluminum, some turning, tapping, drilling and threading.
