Edit- looks like the HD BTC jacket is a similar fabric to what I have PLUS the heat button. That’s got to be the best heated jacket on the market.
Yonly reason I got it is because I got w pairs of gloves and a jacket on the HD website for like $75 total...

WHAT?!? How did you manage that? The only reason I didn’t go HD is because the price. I bought all of my stuff used for half retail. You scored a serious deal like 300 bucks off

Sno, Anything here that might work? Would have to polish the hell out of em to get the shine. I know I have a handful of those anodized cone washers you posted a pic of but for the life of I can't find em. Will look around more tomorrow.

Wow! Thanks man! Some of those just might work. Inner diameter only needs to be 3mm but the real restriction is outter diameter can be no larger than 10mm....3/8ths

One on the left is #6 bonded and #8 on the right. Have lots of small stainless washers that might work as well.

Have an airport run 10:45am to around noon depending on traffic but suspecting it'll be minimal. Flight to land at 11:15am. Will be in the shop rest of the day working on the Limited.
