Bolts are way too small

Hi @nickberckley , I have completed the coding & believe it to be correct and functional. It would be great to have a review before I ask for it merged in - hence the WIP. Thanks

Fix for #6: Incorrect bolt lengths

Minor wrinkle with further testing: For head types that have either a bevel or radius on the underside their reported head height causes the washer face not to be at z=zero once complete. This in…
