thanks, Just worked around using crap that was laying around.
I work in huge storage garage at work, and with a little digging you can find all sort of things. I like making anything that contributes to what I'm trying to accomplish.

Paul-I still couldn't find those plastic star nut fasteners. Using the wing nuts for now. I will keep looking.

Nobody calls me Lebowski. You got the wrong guy. I'm the Dude, man.

thanks professor!

1/4 will be fine. I'm using 5/16 threaded rod but it will a lot easier to use 1/4 as oppose to trying to find these fasteners.

I will no longer ask questions in a hardware store that isn't a mom and pop store. I was told twice "I've never seen anything like that" by two people who work in the hardware department while standing right near chop saws that have the same fasteners.
