Just as a side-addendum to this post, I too am in the process of a total machine shop rebuild. I notice on some of the archived photos on this site that some owners have what looks like chrome acorn head nuts. They look sharp and dress the old flathead up a bit. I checked with John Ulrich and he said what a lot of people do is use 'Faux' acorn nuts that go over the existing regular nuts. I did do some looking online for the 'real deal', but for 27 of them (or so) it would be prohibitive (for me, at least) Anyone have any tips, sources, advice on such an endeavour????
