Peale's Donkey Kong Restoration/Conversion
SirPeale:
I found them locally, and now I know why the prices are so high @ Mike's Arcade.
They're cheap enough by themselves, but of course there is a stamp on the top of each one. So I'm guessing that Mike must remove that and polish them all. Labor = higher price.
Level42:
The one's I got from Luigi were polished on top right away. Did you find metric carriage bolts with the size stamped ?
I've never seen sizes stamped on top of the bolts like apparently is common in the US. It's pretty weird IMHO: you use carriage bolts to have a nice "finished" look on the top side. Else you could use a regular bolt. Then they stamp yukkie letters on the head :dizzy: :dizzy:
There's a great thread on KLOV (or was it here) about how to remove them.
SirPeale:
It's the law in the US. I'll just remove it.
SirPeale:
I received the first part of my art shipment today! Never got a tracking number, it just appeared out of the blue.

i hate to drag on the topic of bolt sizes, but the bolts I received from mike's look like 3mm???
