Hello,
Does anyone know where you can buy / order brass thumbscrews? I'm looking for knurled and ball head type. Want to customize my Phoenix for the shroud and LED+blade retention screws. Also, I believe the size would be 8-32 and I'll most likely need to grind the screw down to fit properly. Much appreciated. |

Depends on the style you want, but yeah, most would have to be shortened a bit.

I've used machine screws for a tattoo gun. it's not as common but is my preferred choice. search ebay for them, you'll find some decent ones.

I actually just went to Lowes and picked these up (there's to a pack): http://m.lowes.com/pd/The-Hillman-Group-2-Count-8-32-x-34-in-Flat-Head-Brass-Plated-Thumbscrew-Drive-Standard-SAE-Machine-Screws/3012696
They're in the screw/bolt section (aisle 15 in my local store) in one of the specialty screw drawers (this whole aisle is kind of a pain to shop in because of this). It's also where you can find 3/16" brass and aluminum rods for using as chassis spacers (since TCSS is always out) and oddly enough, AA and AAA battery holders (I picked up a AAA one for LED testing). |

Great, thanks for the suggestions. I ended up getting some off of ebay, following the tattoo suggestion. Lowe's Canada doesn't seem to stuck those flat head thumbscrews. Oh well.
