Responsibility details are not available.
A wing bolt of a size of 3.5 mm from the GAS HANS brand is a detail accessory with which a simplified cast shape on a model is replaced, or an element missing from a kit is added. In the range it is the largest size offered, which determines where it belongs.
The size is not chosen according to what you like, but according to the scale of the model and according to how big the joint is in reality. A simple conversion applies: you divide the real size by the number of the scale. A wing bolt with a wing length of around 9 cm, of the kind used on real machines for clamping covers by hand, comes out in the usual military scale at just under 3 mm; in the larger scales used for equipment, motorcycles or models of machines, the size comes out bigger still. That is exactly where 3.5 mm is at home. In small scales, on the contrary, a part that big would stick out like a sore thumb and it is better to reach for a smaller size from the same range.
Before gluing, lay the part in place dry and step back from the model to the distance you normally look at it from. When the detail draws attention at first glance, it is big. A comparison with another element whose real size you know also helps - with a person's eye, a door handle or the width of a running board, for instance.
