Friday, May 25, 2007 - 02:07 GMT Use a 1" butterfly bit put a hole on both sides that you are bracing then insert a precut length of 1" hardwood dowel. Threaded rod is great for a burp box but believe it ir not in a daily enclosure the metal rod has a resonant frequency (length dependant) and can cause an audible ringing. Polo..
