    I like the idea too

    Bearing Wholesalers and another local bolt shop don't have them that small though.

    Needs to be 3mm hole and minimum 8-10mm size washer.

    Need to head into the big smoke = Bayswater

    If not I'm sure you could make some. You'll need to put heaps of rivets into it though, they need to be close together

    You can get quite large heads on rivets if you require it. You might get lucky and get one with an 8mm head.

    What about nutserts?

    If this doesn't happen then nutserts was my second choice.

    They would have to be small though.

    Thoughts on this? Haven't seen many people doing it so I'm second guessing...lol

    Being to a few local shops and no joy on washers that small either?
    I used rivets and the screws that came with them

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK
