Tightening the vanes pulls outward on the halves of the bolt you just
split...I'm guessing that the nuts would hopefully hold the halves
together but I'm not sure it would work. I think the bolt would rip
apart...I wasn't clear if this was still in the idea stage or if it
had actually been constructed...seems like a good, simple, method if
it works. (I'll probably try it anyway of course)
