This just came to mind last night as I was going through my field box.....
How often do you guys replace nylon wing bolts?? The ones I had were pretty old...I through them away, as I had forgotten how many times I've used them in the past.
Without the proper education for assessing wear and damage over time, it might be a good idea to toss them occasionally.
We used to boil our nylon props for twenty minutes in order to rehydrate the nylon and restore some strength. Did it work? I don't know, but the props usually looked better afterwards. This might work for the nylon bolts too. Or it might not.
