mtaylor Posted April 16, 2014 #1 Posted April 16, 2014 I'm looking for ring pins. Ideally, the Billing Boat's ones: http://www.billingboatsusa.com/149-bf0285-eyebolt-6mm.html However, after hitting about 15 webshops and no one has them in stock... I'm considering these: http://www.agesofsail.com/ecommerce/fittings/eye-4005-04-brass-ring-bolt-4mm-10.html They are photo etch and I'm wondering how they look installed. Has anyone used them? If those don't work, I guess I'll order these: http://www.castyouranchorhobby.com/item--Ringbolt%20-%203mm--ms0430 Or check my supply of eyebolts and split rings. Worst case... make some.

seahawk1 Posted April 16, 2014 #2 Posted April 16, 2014 If you find some, please let us know. I have a few of both types of these, but will looking for quite a few more. I cannot remember where I acquired the ones on the left, but the ones on the right I got from ME many years ago. Michael Quote We're surrounded, that means we can attack in any direction.

mtaylor Posted April 16, 2014 Author #3 Posted April 16, 2014 The one's on the right look like what CastYourAnchor has. Those will probably work for me... I'm also thinking if I can make some like Billing's sells but I need about 120 of them.
