Long crank pins
#1
I've hit a bit of a snag on a project. I building an On3 2-8-0 with BLI's On30 C-16 drivers. Since the crankpins were out of scale...so far that I couldn't use them with scale 1880s style rods...so I filed them off. This hasn't caused any problems with 3 of the 4 axles, but the screws really aren't long enough for the main driver. Does anyone have a good source?

I'd try Bowser, but I don't want to shell out $12 ($10 min for shipping) for $2 worth of parts...if I can avoid it.

Since I know it isn't cool to mention such a project without a photo...

Btw, that is an old photo. I've done a fair bit of trouble shooting since then and the cross head guide is attached to the main rod.

My primary goal is a large Oahu Railway layout in On3
My secondary interests are modeling the Denver, South Park, & Pacific in On3 and NKP in HO
