Walt, I like your sense of humor. I read your post this morning, and was sure you knew exactly what you were posting about. I was first turned loose on a Case L at 8yrs. old.

In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
