Hi Pascal,
Get a wood screw or bolt of the same thread, cut a washer in half, and have it brazed in the slot. To make it look good, file the ends round, and paint it black.

  Hi, Jurgen,

    Pascal - I could possibly source them in Europe for you.  I assume these have a wood screw thread.  What is the shank diameter and screw length??

  I've seen them with both wood screw thread and with an inset receiver which had been tapped for machine threads.  Probably the former is used more often.

  Best.
