Anyone carry the single brass or bronze eye bolts with ring already through? Whenever I find them on the internet, the listing is outdated and no longer carrying them. Anyone making them?

Hi Ron, had the same problem in the past wanting to acquire Chestnut/ Peterborough style painters ring assemblies. Ended up purchasing ( if memory is correct ) some 3/8” brass rod and a 3/8” die to make threads after acquiring the right size brass rings from a horse and tackle store. They were fairly easy to make once the materials were on hand.

Was hoping for a source. Figured I would have to make them if I needed them to replace ones either lost or rusted as many look to be hand made from bolts with head cut off or threaded rod and bent into loop.
