Title: hex bolts and nuts
Post by: howardspary on July 15, 2019, 01:02:05 am

hi all members
I am trying to find some more 12 ba one head size smaller , all i can find are standard bolts these  smaller heads are required to bolt the stanchions to the kick boards on my 1/12 tamar , i am sure i found some in the past but all efforts have failed to locate some more 40 more bolts are  required  ,12 ba nuts are not a problem to source


Looking forward to any information regarding this matter


Regards to all
