Jim... are you going to be making your own aluminum bolts or are you going to buy them. I suggest USS threads, since they will hold better. No suggestions on how to make aluminum carriage head bolts, but I am certain that you will figure it out. ;) You are an amazing craftsman...
No aluminum bolts from me. I've got a box full of stainless carriage bolts that polish nicely.

You don't have to use the black nasty stuff, Ilsco makes a clear antioxidant paste. It is the only kind I would use before I retired, you can get it at most electrical supply houses. The black stuff would get all over everything including all the handles of your tools.
