Bolt Diameter Size

Post  ozzie770 on Thu Dec 22, 2011 8:29 am

Its my last day at work today, and i wanted to get some nuts and bolts from the stores to mount my Lister D onto a Trolley that im hopefully going to make over christmas.

Like an idiot though, ive forgot to measure the hole diameter...... can anybody please tell me what size i need, save me a job coming back in tommorrow.

Cheers
Ozzie

10mm dia should be ok, some big outside dia washers to go on the bottom would be good to get too
