Does anyone know where I can find small bolts in 1:35 scale? I don't mean the small photoetched bolts but actual bolts with heads of 1mm or less.

Thanks in advance!

Another (cheaper) option is using hexagonal styrene rods. Plastruct makes some, with a width ranging from 0.5mm to 3.2mm.

My vote goes to slicing the hex rod. Tons can be made and it's cheap. I do tons of scratchbuilding and detailing. That's how I go at it.
