You could use these if they are long enough, and then put a bolt through the eye of this and also the “gate eye”.

You've got it in one, Mike.

I don't mind at all. Donation also to a charity of your choice perhaps ?

If you feel the need, but it isn't compulsory and you can pick a charity. I prefer my donations to charity to come from the pot I put to the side and remain my own business, don't ask why, I'm just weird.

Thanks Dave. The length of the screwed thread part? Probably 75mm? Is that OK ?

Yep, though it won't be a perfect thread for the last 25mm as I'm cheating a bit and using a coach bolt, save me having to cut threads and better steel than threaded rod. I'll leave them a tad long so you can make of it what you wish. Or I can flip it round and have 50mm off thread on the end with a clear shank on the middle.
