Wanted: Little old screws !

In order to complete a couple of brass refractor projects I need to find some small brass machine screws. These are those tiny screws seen on old brass scopes, binoculars, clocks etc.

If anyone has a stash of various sizes of slotted Fillister, Round or Cheese head brass screws in sizes from 1mm to 4.7mm diameter or similarly sized Imperial threaded machine screws please PM me.

Thanks in advance,

Matt

Thanks Terry, I have seen that site and may have to go to them but am hoping to find some old screws first, the new ones are a bit too shiny!

Cheers, Matt

I have always got similar items from a large company here in Penrith NSW called Boltmaster, their website is http:// www.boltmaster.com.au looks like Melbourne is closest but they might have dealerships elsewhere. While they are primarily a trade supplier I have always found them to be very helpful with small orders.
