Whatever it is, if the center is threaded, you should be able
to tighten it
by temporarily threading a regular screw into it unless it is
reverse

Oh, yeah. I should have thought of that. I feel stupid.

YOu screw another piece of that same threaded stuff in it, put
a fiber
washer on, and then put a nuts on over that. Tighten the nut
and it
will turn the prongless T-nut. Something like that.

I guess I"ve nver done this before, but I did something
remotely
similar, and I should have thought of it.

Thanks.

threaded ir something odd like that.

Sounds like custom hardware.
