Droid Restraining Bolt

It’s been sort of slow at work lately so I’ve been playing around making 3D models of parts I’d like to machine.

Yesterday and today I’ve been working on a restraining bolt. From what I understand the originals were machined replicas of a movie camera lens, so they are not exactly like the lens in detail. It is also my understanding that the exact model lens has not been found.

Pictures of a real lens (that looks really close) show two raised fins inside. Screenshots of the bolts looks like there is only one fin. I wanted to ask if anyone has better reference on which is more accurate and/or if there is a preference between the two designs?

This is still a work in progress so please give any suggestions to make it better.
