Just to complete my prior post, a trip to Lowes and $0.68 later I now have 4 nuts that fit on the PLM speedring bolt. Both speedrings now fit nicely into a small box with the shafts removed and it's a simple matter to screw them in tot he permanently attached bolts when needed. Much less likely to get bent or broken carrying them disassembled.
Makes carrying and storage much better.
Hopefully I'll have time tonight to actually shoot with them.

Do you have pictures of how you set it up?

I'll try to shoot some over the weekend, but it should be easy to visualize:
Insert the bolt that came with the PLM thru one of the supplied washers.
Then insert the bolt through the hole in the speedring, with the threads facing out.
Put the second supplied washer over the threads.
Screw the newly purchased nut onto the threads, tightening the entire assembly.
When you want to use the PLM, screw the aluminum extension arm onto the exposed bolt.
When you are done, unscrew the extension, leaving the bolt screwed to the speedring.
No loose parts to lose, no tools required on the shoot.
