If you are worried about it being balanced, have the threads roll formed instead of cut. No metal removal that way and they will be a lot stronger. Finding a shop to do it might be a bit harder, but not impossible at all.

I have looked around on the net, but not found what I want yet. mcmaster is too limited in their selection here.
Anybody here can help with suggestions?
