0.8 according to my feeler gauge.
It was pretty nerve-wracking. I started on the front / left just in case I ballsed it up.
It needs tidying and there is too much free space at the top of the guide, which might be visable in the 2nd pic. The plan is to try and fill it with solder and re-tap.
As cool as it would be to use the springs and have them as fully adjustable barrel adjusters I think a flush fit would be more strong and stable. Then I'd probably trim the length so there's less thread on display.
That's the plan anyway.

IIRC barrel adjusters usually use a fine pitch thread, not standard M5 ...
