If you are going to use brass nuts here, be sure to use the *tall* ones
(about twice normal thickness) or you run the risk of stripping them
when torquing to the specified value.

These days, I use normal height stainless nuts, with stainless split
lock washers, sourced from my local West Marine. I don't have problems
with seizing or loosening.
