Why not plain hex heads? I don't see where they need to be perfectly round;

heads and no hole.


Will look for 12 point heads since I vaguely remember seeing them in a
taller high head version. Bats as you have noted would not care if I
electro formed turds and bolted them to the mold. Pesky humans however
(ones with money) want things that look beautiful and have no obvious "I
know how they did that" features.

And yes, most of us on this newsgroup are not typical and spot 'how they
done that's' frequently. I know I do...
