Same here, Paul. The metal bit is just a cut, drill and a couple of bends.
The nut, which is out of sight, out of mind, can be just a hex nut or, as I
have done, chuck a correct size screw in the drill, with the subject-hex
nut threaded on, then spin the nut against the spinning grinder until
'most' of the hex 'corners' are rounded down. I used a brass nut.
Yes, that is a solution, not a 'correct' solution.
Wait! You said 'speedo'! The nut is the same but the bracket is intricate.
Hummm...
