There are a couple ways to attack this. One is to make the stock the

and finish with another nut. Tighten the nuts together with 2 wrenches.
Now, you can turn the OD as desired. I make a number of odd spacers,
etc. like this.

How do you do this if the hole size doesn't match up with an existing bolt,
though? Assuming you want your hole to be centered in the piece, anyway.
