Where do I get internal washers and internal nuts for the inside of my bhangra dhol? I have Remo Clear Ambassador on my dhol and some nuts and bolts are slowly pulling off(angling or angled) just a little bit because it's not handling tension very well :mad: FML

You can get washers and nuts from any hardware store. But I had a problem with the sockets on mine. I couldn't get any nuts to fit the thread of the screw part on the sockets.
All you have to do is take of your treble, put the washer on the inside of your sockets, then put the bolt on top. Btw you don't have to say bhangra dhol when you say dhol lol, it's just dhol haha.

Do you know what size the washers and the nuts are ? You can order from www.mcmaster.com. They have wide variety of washers,nuts, bolts, etc. Or you can take those washers and nut and go to your local hardware store.

By the way, mines look like quarter inch screw about an inch and length and the threading is not metric and not in inches either, best guess is a fine quarter inch threading

There are sometimes thing that are expensive, but worth spending a little money on... This is one of them. If you don't have any family in india that can send you what you need, it might be worth investing in a whole new hook and bolting rig that come with the back nuts
