And yes, within a brand of barrel (not stock barrels or 32* cheap stuff) the tolerances are indeed 1/1000 of an inch. It really isnt that hard when you have the proper tooling to make it.

Das a hundreth of an inch bro..

I might as well add:
.1
1 tenth of an inch
.01
1 hundreth of an inch
.001
1 thousandth of an inch

Don't forget that in machinists terms a tenth is .0001. .1 is a "hundred thousandths". Its weird like that.
.1501 would be "One hundred fifty thousandths and 1 tenth".

It's probably already said, but you might want to put up a disclaimer.

not to bash on you or anything, but generally a thermite reaction requires something extremely hot, such as a magnesium flare to set the reaction off.. I could be wrong, but I highly doubt that sanding aluminum could produce THAT much heat.. especially considering that most people would probably notice an uncomfortable amount of heat produced long before that..
that's not to say that if the piece was in a vice grip and the person was using a drill on the highest setting AND not using any kind of coolant or something like that, that it COULDN'T happen.. it just doesn't seem terribly likely to happen to most people ballsy enough to try this.. notwithstanding morons, of course.
just my 2 cents ^.^
ooh, also, superkudos for doing your homework! I knew about the reaction, but didn't even think about the fact that the O2 was in the rust!

Thermite is Iron Oxide and powdered Aluminium it is normally ignited with a starter charge of powdered magnesium and zerconium This starter combination burns at over 1900 degrees which is needed to set off the main charge.
#1 thermite is a precise mix of these 2 ingredients not Rust and aluminium grindings.
#2 the "mesh" (partical size) is critical to ignition
#3 If by chance you have #1 and #2 just right while wire wheeling aluminium Aluminium melts at 1220 degrees F ....Thermite needs 1900 ++ to ignite.... you figure it out!!

I have a dremel what else do i need?
Would it be better to just get it rechromed?

or, just get a custom trigger?
