    Not a bad idea. It at least gets my wheels turning for a similar or better solution.

    I'd just go with the dab of weld on the bolt head(s). Or use one socket head. Or whatever. How is "buying a new bolt" tougher than making this part?

    Walking all around the field instead of straight across. But I guess he needs a gimmick to make the video 'valid' clickbait.

    Or don't leave any of the fasteners exposed. I'm going to press in plugs over these that will need drilled and taped to remove.
