that's about 1/2 of the solution. That pivot bolt is actually an intricate little bushing that goes through the stand and over a post in the frame. So yes, I think ill need a button head bolt, but more importantly I think I'll have to either 1) manufacture a new bushing that doesn't have the edge on it, or 2) cut the edge off the one that's on there.

I may take the bushing out and go to the hardware store and see if I can match up the inner and outer diameters.
