A really simple lamp or clock can sell for over £100, I just thought I'd mention it in case you like upcycling projects. I've made a few clocks for friends and I'm thinking about setting up a shop online. I'd love to be able to sell furniture like this one day: http://www.hicksandhicks.com/hicks-and-hicks/original-upcycled-bike-bar-table.aspx?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyv3XhKOq5AIVjA8YCh1I2wGVEAkYASABEgJHlfD_BwE

Where wheel builds go to die...
Have you ever tried making things from bike parts? You can make some cool stuff, especially from the gears and wheels and they sell really well on ebay.

Hi,
Have a look at steel-vintage.com or retro-bike.co.uk -
I'm not sure if its the type of stainless steel or the drive type (probably both), but these screws seem much less prone to rounding :)

Sorry I assumed it would have some sort of coating on it aswell.

Thanks Jonny, it might have been the allen keys that didn't fit right and that I was over tightening them because I didn't want them to come loose.

The Clerkenwell screws website wasn't working, but I've ordered some with threadlocking liquid already on them: https://www.accu.co.uk/en/torx-cap-head-screws/255956-SHC-M4-6-A2-R360

Thanks so much for your help. Those Torx ones on ebay look good for £2.15, except the delivery time is between 3 and 9 weeks :(
If I cut a M4 bolt will it damage the coating and make it likely to rust and get stuck?
Hi,
It depends what your budget is. Argos do some fairly cheap sheds.
