Of bolts and pump leathers

I just read the article about Mr. Unzelman making his own square-headed bolts. These bolts are available from McMaster-Carr Supply Co., which has a Web site (www.mcmaster.com) and numerous locations in larger cities. In the January 2002 issue of Farm Collector, I saw Richard Wetzel's note about pump leathers. I suggest trying Lehman's Hardware (www.lehmans.com), Kidron, Ohio. If

you are ever in that part of the country it is worth your time to stop at this hardware store. The "leathers" Mr. Wetzel is seeking are probably the same as the pressure pump leathers for gasoline lamps.
