    Thanks! I've been using it for quite some time. Wanted something not used by others and I've not seen it used anywhere else.

    Most accessories are simply "snug" and don't need to worry too much on exactly how tight they are, if, and here's the kicker, you are using the correct grade and alloy bolt. Likely that one that stripped out was either too soft a bolt or the threads are the wrong alloy causing oxidation or such.

    Here's a guide to identifying bolts and nuts and torque by size. Sorry the pictures are sideways. 20211020_203955.jpg 20211020_204014.jpg
