Hello,

Any idea where to buy 6BA x 1/4" (min) CSK Phillips drive screws?

Thanks.

Bags of hen's teeth also availabledevil

Unlikely to find any as Philips x head screws were not available in BA sizes.(afaik)

E-Bay is always worth a try.

Was asked to find 50 or so oddball head and length size combination 6BA for a piano guy. E-Bay came up trumps with something so close that he was happy. Had to get a pack of 100 but the price was very good. I really really didn't fancy cutting down 50 of a more standard size.

Hi KWIL, that's what I'm begining to think.

Failed with Ebay Clive. That was my first port of call.

You may have better luck looking for Countersunk BA Allen screws.

Yes guys, that may be the way to go. I'll need to change quite a few as I want to keep them all the same.
