Yeah, I was gonna swing by the hardware store on my way to work but left my wallet at home so was thinking I could order online. I'll maybe just go tomorrow.
I seem to remember that George designed them to take a regular bolt but very little info on what that bolt actually is.
Ah, I've just found a chart that tells me the tpi of 9/16 UNF is 18 and I've seen 9/16 - 18 as a reference for the Vandal/Homer bolts so I think that confirms that they are UNF.
Cheers.

Marmoset was 3/8" 24tpi
I did replace a Homer and a Vandal bolt at some stages in my life but I can't remember the pitches. You should be able to just take the wheel into a hardware store and try out bolts, I remember that was one of the USPs on the adverts for the Homer and Vandal hubs, that rather than having to replace a costly axle you could use any bolts from the hardware store.
