Alrite I'm working on making my own. If found a bolt in my dad's toolbox and it's just like a normal one but it has like a washer attached to the top. Like imagine a washer welded just under the top like octagonal turning this (idk I'm not tool savvy). So I had some pvc lying around and thought huh how can I make a plastic peg out of this? So then I realized the diameter of the pipe and the washer thing are the same so it's totally flush! So I used a TON of like glue on it. Like a good solid coat of elmers and then super glue and epoxy on it and I filled in the hollow center of the pipe with glue. But I don't think it's gonna hold under my weight... Any ideas on what I can do?

don't use pvc and elmers glue...disaster in the making. You need a hard polymer plastic, with a thick wall. Pvc will never ever work
 
hey I can tell u str8t up the best pegs u can make r outta of a metal socket set from harbour freight or used tools store, just pick the size socket you want get a bolt that will fit & a nut that fits snug on your sock & u can turn the socket & put it on w/ out a wrench
but put a acorn nut on the end of it 2...
