YES!
What Aaron said and Marty's Pic.
I have 12 sets of them. They are the best and easiest thing to use. I had a couple hundred of the micro nuts and bolts. But after Tom sent me a set of the bolts in the pic above I threw away all the bolts I had. They are worth the money!It's just Sharpening, right?

Yes, and the same Romanian supplier sells very high-quality, solid collars. I own and have used just about every type they sell-love 'em, and always enjoy getting the envelope with the exotic stamps and strange language after I forgot I even ordered it-I know it contains goodies.
One other minor thing: the brass rod they include with their collars actually fits their collars. I bought some brass pinning stock of supposedly the right size once, and couldn't make it fit in any of my collars, which is kind of important.There are many roads to sharp.

I use microfasteners.com 0-80 size. They also have different outer diameter washers in different materials. Sometimes I dome them sometimes I use them flat. To make the pinning permanent just peen down the bolt end onto the nut, or remove the nut, cut the bolt end about 1/32" proud and peen it down onto the washer. You can of course also round the bolt head if desired. Myself I usually do not use brass for permanent pinning but it can be done, it's just a bit soft and stretchy compared to Nickel-Silver rod.
