I did once fashion one of these by using one of the longer WM motor mounting bolts and two nuts, washers and rubber seals.

That was many years ago and it did the trick at the time. Imagine the bolt head as the top of the bollard. It was in a 95 series plastic drum that had suffered severe coin damage to the moulded heater retaining lug.

Many miles from home doing a job for a friend and didn’t have a bollard kit with me at the time.

I know there is a chance it may rust after a few years but if it keeps the old tub going for a while its worth a shot.
