banjojohn Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Can anyone advise where these very small diameter counter sunk steel wood screws can be obtained in the UK (in small numbers!)... ? Also replacement case hinges and their screws too?
Theo Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) They are difficult to find. Retain any that are still usable even if not perfect. Mark Adey at concertina-spares.com might have some. Model making suppliers sometimes have screws that are small enough, but most don't. Edited February 26, 2016 by Theo
Stephen Chambers Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 The original long thumb strap/finger rest screws were usually 1" No. 1 size, but those havent been made for around 90 years now. Slightly thicker 1" No. 2 size are the nearest you're likely to find these days: 20 Nettlefolds 1" x 2 steel countersunk head woodscrews with the traditional slotted head The same eBay seller often has other useful sizes too.
OLDNICKILBY Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 I found some for Dave Leese and so to Mark Adey. 1 " and 1/1/4 2's . He has plenty of G K N slotted head
