I need some dummy plastic bolts for a project. I had a bunch, with .050 and .075 heads. I have enough of the .075s, but not enough .050 ones to finish the project. I went looking with google and could not find anything. I got the ones I had from the Model Railroad section of my hobby shop- they have no more. I tried Walthers, which I used to believe had scratch-building supplies of all kinds, but their search function yielded zilch.
Anyone know any place to buy those things these days?

I have a set of hex punch and dies. I’ll check the sizes when I get home. Try your Google-Fu for “hex punch and die set”.
If you just need a few and my set has the right size, I can knock out a bunch for you. Just not 100s ‘kay?

Thanks. I need eleven more, but that will be a last resort. I am still trying to get duplicates of the ones I have been using.
Don,
When you asked this back in 2012, you were directed to Grandt Line bolt heads. Now Grandt Line is out of business and the new go-to is Tichy-Train. They should have just what you need.

Thanks, Rick. I will give them a try.
Found and ordered the bolts from Tichy. Thanks again.
Model railways (railroads) suppliers are a treasure trove when it comes to things like scale bolts etc. Always worth a look.
Hi Don;
I think your best bet would be Spring Creek Model Trains in Deshler, Nebraska. Dave and Deb will be more than helpful. They are a vendor at two of our yearly Train Shows and that's where I get most of the stuff like that ! T.B.
