Hi Nick, am pleased you managed to resolve your problem of 10mm eyebolts with 7mm ones off fleabay....Cool Cool Cool

Still, in answer to your question, eyebolts are provided throughout the series all the way up through the series to the end. You could of course consider making your own from suitable brass wire. They are not difficult to make and they are just as good those supplied plus you could make them to any size you wish. This link hopefully will give you some idea on how to make them. Also by searching the web and youtube you will find plenty of other examples of how to make these small fittings at minimal cost.

Hope this helps.

I agree, they are very fiddly
I've heard some people say they're leaving them until the end and doing them all in one go, that would drive me crackers as there's hundreds of the to make!!!
