I believe the nylock nuts may have actually contributed to the failures.
Some nylock nuts have larger outside dimentions than the comparable regular nuts.
Forcing the larger nut into the hex opening, and over tightening them may crack the polycarbonate.

We did read the thread. He edited his original post to say that it was applied after the damage appeared.

[edit] On closer inspection there are some cracks around the nut cavities that look like they might be consistent with slightly too large of a nut.
