My Varney 4-6-2 needs a eccentric bolt. Hasn't arrived yet. What can I use for a replacement?

you need cal scale #190-384 eccentrics
and eccentric rivet #1-80007 from Bowser.
did this on my Varney casey jones
hardest part is to get out the old thread maybe you need rivet tool #1-36 too - erich

Thanks Erich! I've got another boiler with a nice detail job started I'll use. It's got a pin and not a rivet it seems. I have a donor Casey Jones with valve gear. May try using the bolt.

Thats Fine when You have a donor One.
You can use the Crank Pin which has a
Hole for a Pin to Secure the crank! In this Case
You dont Need the Parts I sugested! -erich

I'll definitely need a rivet! My rivets on hand are too short to rivet the eccentric and it's linkage.
