Hey jb, thanks. The bolt heads are modified nut & pin pieces from Grandt Line..... grandtline.com/model_railroad/augmentables_pages.htmI used part #127 and sanded off the pin part to make the bolt head. From what I could tell, they don't make just bolt heads in that size.

Thanks Jeff....me too. Like I said, they are not exact and not perfect. But when you put it all together, I was quite happy with the results. There are several tiny parts I hope are not too difficult for the caster. I'm hyper to see what he does.

Sebastien ran into some material problems, which I believe have been corrected. The Rockwells are back underway. You guys will know as soon as they are ready. I'm pumped.
