STEP 1: Step 1
Place the nut over the rod near the end, then drill a hole. Make sure it goes all the way through the rod. Remove the nut when done drilling.
STEP 2: Step 2
Friction fit a nail or solder into the hole you just drilled. Leave 3/8 inches sticking out
STEP 3: Step 3
Tap your nut, and insert a bolt. Put back on the rod. Adjust to where you want it, and then scribe the wood.
STEP 4: Step 4
Now, mark your wood.
STEP 5: Author's Note
Use a drill press. I didn't, and the hole in the rod was slightly off, but it still works.
