Default Countersunk washers

Quote:
did you fabricate the washers for the countersunk bolts, or are they available somewhere?
I would have gone insane if I had made the dozens of c'sunk washers! They are available from McMaster-Carr. I got the titanium fasteners from a place called "Coast Fabrication" who specialize in making available small quantities of mil-spec aircraft hardware to racers.

looking at the pictures (more please) i really can't find anything i would do different.

So in as few words as i can come up with.

I aspire to build something to this level one day as this car is really a work of art.

Congrads on this awesome project.

hmmm... do you know what they are called in the McMaster-Carr catalog? I have looked several times for them in the past and come up short.

Default pn 95481A011

Bill,

Search for pn 95481A011 on the McMaster site. That's the pn for #10 machine screws countersunk washers.

If you want to spend more money, Longacre Racing has some very very trick ones for 1/4" stuff.

Ha.. Coast Fab is just down the street. That's where I got my Aero-catches. Cool place!

I'm not sure of all the places I'll have the car in 2007, but I'm committed to the Eyes on Design show in Detroit in June.

I'm fairly certain I'll make the Year One in Atlanta (May), Good Guys in Columbus (July), and Run through the Hills in Tennessee (September).
