    If you can get by with washers, you'll have the heads of the bolt and nut protruding from the tube.
    There's only one way to find out, but if they only stick out by a couple of mm I shall be happy. Of course our HW bolts stick out so far you could almost hang your coat off them and it does not cause concern.

    When complete I shall bring this to the Bash for peer review.
