[Elecraft] Nuts and Bolts (WAS:] KX-1 KXBD1 KEYER ISSUE)

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Larry AG4NN asked:

What about lag bolts?

-----------------------

In general that's a misnomer. They're correctly and commonly called "lag
screws" because, although they have a hexagonal head to fit a wrench, they
are a large wood screw. Like so many things in the English language, there
are always exceptions to the rule that are often based on "common usage" by
people who didn't know one from the other. In many places they are called
"carriage bolts". 

Last time I looked, not a single Elecraft kit uses them and I suspect that
interest on this forum in such things is "lagging", so I'll refer any
further questions to your local hardware store.
