    Back when I was writing about Command sets for CQ Magazine, I bought 
dozens of the units in surplus, and took parts off bad ones to make good 
ones. I kept the removed screws, some of which never got put back into 
badly-damaged pieces. That of course was 40 years ago. Would you believe 
that I still have a bunch of those screws in a box in my shop? 
Thoroughly mixed up of course. But I looked in the shop and I still have 
those screws and if someone has need, I will donate them to the cause. 
(This is of course a long-standing  habit of mine. When I was four years 
old, back in 1937, the lady next door discarded an upright piano. I 
dragged the guts of the thing into our basement and spent the winter 
taking it apart. I still have some screws from it, 80 years later.)
