Just for laughs, anyone care to hazard a guess at the cost of these few bolts?

They are:
5/16 x 1" bolts G8 x 25
5/16 x 3/4" bolts G8 x 25
5/16 nuts G8 x 30
5/16 spring washers G8 x 60
5/16 flat washers HT x 60
5/16 SS nuts x 20
5/16 SS slot screw x 20
M8 SS spring washer x 20

Here's a little hint, The five little packets cost $1.00 between them.
And I have to dock the slot screw bolts for correct length!










Price was actually:
*@#%@#$%^
OTGT$110AUERBG
GTRVRVRFVF#@

I go to Beenleigh tomorrow (>200km away) to pick up the first of two trailer axles I need to put under the chassis for sandblasting. It was about time for a day road trip anyway. A second axle has turned up here in Gympie, and is a freebie.
Weather forcast for tonight/tomorrow suggests somewhere between 100 and 200mm of rain. That is approx 8" in foreign measure. Hope they got the prediction wrong! So far tonight......no rain at all.
