What a great idea and already the research and testing has been done. Thanks.

What I’ve decided to do is have a thin head bolt “machined”. The machined one will have a .125” thick head on it that is actually a tab that reaches 1.5”-2” or so inboard. I can drill a hole through that and attach as the plans would as if it were the .090” aluminum pin holder.

 

Think that’ll work?

Thanks again y’all …

Sand a lot … fill a little … sand a lot more.

Jim,

 

Drill a 2 inch hole-saw opening in the spar close out panel adjacent to and outboard of the bolt so your fingers  and wrench can tighten a lock nut on the bolt. 

Been there done that.
