Been thinking about some 1/4-20 hold-down solutions to compliment my 10-32 stiff, mainly for compatibility with some 1/4" accessories I have.

Toying with a few options,

  • T-nuts: Raised nut design, also will serve as hold-off (maybe only raised 1/8")
  • T-bolts: Some off the shelf 1/4 hex head bolts + "head carriers" to prevent spin and contact with slot walls


Some simplified drawings I made real quick in MS paint, sorry, CAD license is being used by someone for "real work" at the moment.





5/16 would be be great too, but would require even more elaborate workarounds, prob gonna focus 1/4-20 for now.


Wondering mainly if anyone has tired similar with/without success.
