    Would you really want Ti there?

    I've had a steel one shear off on a layback a few years ago

    No but is Ti more likely to fail over stainless or cromo?

    I looked hard but couldn't find one either, but when/if you find one, please email me, as I want one for my I-Beam.

    Cheers uplink. Thought there would be an endless discussion on the merits of ti vs steel when all i asked is a simple question of where i can get one from

    Cutting ti bolts is a proper chore! Only did that once!

    Cutting ti bolts is a proper chore! Only did that once!

    Put two nuts on the bolt and tighten together.
    Hold nuts in a vice (fnarr)
    Cut off unnecessary bit with an angle grinder
    file end to remove burr
    remove nuts
