shield boss

Post by lebreton »

Looking for a shield boss, want to keep the weight down so spring steel would be a plus.

Thanks

I don't know anything about Darkwood, but I found these online recently.

lebreton, if you haven't made a decision yet, please know that we haven't had a chance to update the website yet, but we have all 5 styles of boss in stock again, as well as the copper-capped carriage bolts ($19/set of 6).

Sorry, we are having issues with the current site while trying to get the new site ready, and the capped bolts aren't on there, among other things. They're 1/4" 20, which fits our bosses perfectly. A standard set is (4) 3/4" long, (2) 1" long (to bolt through a handle as well), and (6) hex nuts - but we can mix that up as needed.
