Get long longish bolts and use one of those small hacksaws with thin blades and a fine tooth file to cut down and debur to achieve a perfect size. Use a vice to make the cut.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks again

Put a nut on before you cut the bolt. After cutting, remove the nut and the threads will be perfectly normal. Sometimes when you're filing, you can get a bit of a flat spot. Removing the nut makes it straight. It ensures the threads will be de-burred too. It always works for me.

Sometimes, when you have something that is to be bolted on, but you would rather have studs, you can use the nut to cut the head of the bolt off and make a stud by cleaning up the threads.
