Has anyone used U-Bolt-It in Houston to fabricate longer U bolts than available 
in standard sizes? If so were they able to deal with small quantities at a 
reasonable price (like 2 to 4 pieces)?

##  what size  bolt..and how long does it have to be ?      The SS  U bolts I 
bought from DX eng  have the longest threads I have ever seen on any U bolt.   
They provide for bucket loads of
excess thread.   They also come in both  .3125 and also .375 sizes.  You can 
easily have enough thread to go through say a .75 inch thick AL plate..with 
plenty left over for the nut etc.
