Making Bolts



Materials

 * Threaded Rod
 * Nut of the same size

Fabrication instructions

 * 1) Cut the threaded rod to a little longer (enough to thread thru most of the nut, this does require math) than you need the bolt.
 * 2) Thread the nut on the rod so that the rod is about 2/3 of the way thru the nut.
 * 3) Plug weld the two together, taking care to protect the threads from spatter.
 * A good way to do this is to put the apparatus into a vise so only the bolt is exposed.
 * Also, you could hang it thru a hole.
