[NSRCA-discussion] thumbnuts

[Ron Van Putte]

Wing nuts are fine once you get them started, but I've seen "dial  
nuts", that look like a radio knob, which a a lot easier to get  
started and spin on than a wing nut.  I know they are available,  
because I've seen them on other's airplanes, but I can't find them  
anywhere.  Nobody seems to remember where they found them.  They're  
not at my local Ace Hardware, Home Depot or Lowe's.

Does anybody know where to purchase 1/4 - 20 dial nuts?
