Default DIY locknuts, zero cost, making them: alternate ideas, anyone?


"Ecnerwal" other faster simpler cheaper approaches welcome
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Loc-tite.
Hack-saw nut to make a pair of jam nuts.
Drill thru tightened nut and bolt--insert cotter pin.
Drill endwise into interface between nut and bolt. Drive in roll pin or
taper pin.
Leave wrench on the tightened nut, and tie with wire.
