Mmmh, twenty odd answers - and nobody had the idea of simply and quickly making those few bolts on the lathe? Last week, I needed some 3/8" x 16 tpi bolts to fasten a little wood router to the table of my Cooksley circular saw, British made in 1965. I took a couple of M12 bolts, turned them down to 9.5 mm (removing threads) and cut 16 tpi threads. It took me about half an hour - shorter than looking up a supplier on the internet! I thought you had lathe and mill at hand, Gene? Peter
