Low cost jacking pucks
I've been using hockey pucks and decided to add some T bolts to hold the pucks in the chassis slots. A simple and cheap solution was to get some 5/16 x 1 1/2" elevator bolts (https://www.boltdepot.com/Product-De...?product=14855) and then trim the sides of the heads to 18mm wide. Bolts were $0.38 each.
Yes, I know I could buy a set of molded pucks on EBay for $20, but I already had the pucks and was ordering some fasteners for another project so this was a low cost add on.
