Brass Bolts came today!

The Brass bolts came today! They are normally about $1.65 each, but I got them for like $0.20 each on ebay. There was only one person selling them, too (on all of Ebay)! I have enough for about 10 controllers.

The shiny ones in my hand are a small sample of the ones that I soaked in lemon juice for a while, and then wiped down. The ugly ones in the box are some of the ones that I haven't soaked yet. They will be used to conduct the current from the capacitors to the other side of the power board.
