as far as the safety pin just pick up a bass bolt at the hardware store and cut the head off..
Drill and tap the base plate to take it on..
, 5/16-18 x 3 1/2" long works great, just cut off the head and some of the threads,so you end up with a stud with 1/2" of threads on one and no threads on the other end..
If you have a lathe or you can use a mates lathe you can make your own easy and quick with some brass bar stock.. ▼
