I'm looking for a 1" x 14 fine thread nylon/plastic nut. I've found a
number that come close, but no exact matches. If anyone knows where I can
buy a couple of those, please let me know.

When it is nylon, one rarely needs the exact size, although I'm sure
sometimes one does.

Also, what about speed nuts.

Heat up a bottle-cap to around 350 degrees F. in your toaster
oven, and squash it around the bolt in question with a thick
scrap of leather.

Home Depot (& perhaps others) has a set of drawers in the hardware dept.
that is filled with odd ball stuff, (metric sizes, plastic nuts/bolts,
etc.). Perhaps you can find what you seek there.
