Lots of BSF nuts on ebay as well. They run around $6-$10 for 60, so approx 15 cents each. Hard to justify making them even for twice that price.

Got a bundle of the bolts from Michael today and they are sitting on my desk as we speak. Absolutely gorgeous. I grabbed a couple of new BSF nuts from the back room and the threads are also perfect. They will suffer a touch from the shipping and banging against each other in transit, so expect some slight burring, but once the nut runs on once, all is good.

The longer 5/16 ones will be nice, especially for the control panel. With the thick rubber gasket that goes between the hull and the control panel, it seems I could never find these bolts long enough to do the job.

Thanks Michael for having these made up. It is a real service to carrier owners and restorers.

Plain finish and suitably lubricated. Just like in the old days.
