What kind of nuts are recommended? Plain old hex nuts? Flange or no flange? Maybe even acorn? Locking?

Edit: nevermind, McMaster-Carr only has one type of brass nut on their website: the plain old hex type.

That is the best kind, srg.

Girls like to tinker, too.

Yeah, I saw that, but I had already posted and been called out.
It's all good.

great tip. i'll follow your advice.

Just a couple of notes, growler. Brass nuts are better because if they get frozen on the stud they will strip out rather than the steel stud. Also, when you go to install them, put two of the brass nuts on the stud and tighten them to each other. They will lock together and allow you to use the outer nut to tighten down the stud.
