Dan thanks for the brief class on fastners. Many of the participants on this site don't understand the dynamics of fastners and seem to think more (harder) is better.

I would encourage anyone swapping bolts to read and understand the differences in shear, bending, compression and stretching.


This is a great topic - hopefully it will be used to educate rather than seek revenge.
