Thanks for the vote of confidence.

Doing the lower and upper bolts isn't a problem but I suspect the price may be. There is a minimum charge for casting parts so I think that they could easily cost £5 each. The other issue is that the top one needs to be tapped, this is easy you can all drill out a hole and run a tap down the centre. The bottom screw will need to have a thread cut too but using a die, the threaded section will need to be turned down to allow the die to run down it's length. This will need to be done on a lathe yourself or it involves me getting them done which will add to the cost. How many would want one if the cost stared pushing £10 each!!

I'll post a new thread over the weekend about two new parts that are ready to be done.

Sorry to put a downer on the bolts but I can't see a cheap way of getting them done but I will ask at the foundry next week.

Thanks

Ben
