Why not get a bit of brass rod and use a ¼-28 (or whatever) die on it? Some old toilet cistern ball-cocks had brass rods….. Completely free if you can find a dead one! John Kent RV-4 EI-DIY.

Instead of using a brass or copper bolt, consider using a U-shaped bar of copper that is slipped in like a paper clip or bobby-pin. That way the fixturing and current conducting functions are separated. If this were on the edge of the firewall, no hole through the firewall might need to be made.

Eric, I can always identify your posts without even looking at the
signature line, because they are so refreshingly outside the
box. But I can't picture what you mean here. Can you explain
further where the U is slipped into?
