    Default Washers, Nuts, and Bolts

    I'm in the process of restoring my first straight and on this one I'm not going to try and pin it but I'd rather like to get a bolt to hold it together. I looked at microfasteners.com but I don't know the sizes. Can someone direct me to the correct size bolt, nut, and washer I need to hold everything together? I know it should be 1/16" but I can't seem to find that anywhere.

    Thanks.

    They are the 0-80 size brass hex head bolts, and 0-80 brass nuts. You can use 0 or 0wide washers.
    Be sure to order the wrench too. (from the material info thread: If you want the wrench for the 1/16 nuts'n bolts, ask for part #WR0/ $4.50 in the comment field of your order.)

    We have a sticky in the workshop (just on top of the latest post) in the workshop forum. It has pretty much all the info you will need.
    There was also a link to the adjustables.
