I've looked and looked but I can't find a supply of 80mm M4 bolts. Anyone
know where I can get these?

That's long for such a small diameter. You'd get threaded rod easily
enough, though.

I'd settle for threaded rod, but I can't find that less than M6. I must be
looking in the wrong place(s).

B&Q had it last time I looked. They also had plain steel rod in the
correct size to be threaded if you have the die.

My local corner shop stocks it for some bizarre reason, it's on a rack with
little packs of screws, washers, hairnets and nail clippers.

Thanks to all those that replied. I'm assuming this is per metre? [The
Anglian Fasteners web-site said that it was available in 1,2 & 3m lengths]
