Save your hard earned ,dear trackheads , just get some Thin solder (or anneal some copper wire) thee squishes with a pair of fine nosed pliers - and Wallah !
you can even drill a likkle hole for a bit of the 'stud' if thats your thang . a whiff of a file , snippetty snip - sorted . and much cheapness to boot
u likey ?

They I made some wing nuts for my tiger tank turret vent was to get a 1.2mm bolt clamp the thread end in a vice and file two sides of the hex nut down then file a slit in the middle!
not as cheap as your idea but if you have some small bolts hanging around worth trying!
