A tip for the new Eggers: get yourself a couple of 5/16-18 (coarse thread) nuts and double nut the band bolts. It will keep them from loosening over time.
I happened to have a couple nylock nuts around, but regular nuts will be fine. I did this to my old Egg and never had issues with the band loosening.

Dude how you gonna post advice when your bolts are that bent? I’m gonna stick with the stock setup that I’ve been running for 17 years with no problems. Overthink and over tighten much? Just put some red thread locker on it ya dingus. Just saying….

But how *did* you bend the bolts? Are those the bolts it came with? I should think that adding a spring tension washer inside the nut it came with is enough
