[Boatanchors] "Off topic?..."Antique nevertheless!"

Hello Gang:

I have a 5" Pickett pocket duplex decitrig slide rule that has a busted 
screw!  The two used at each end to adjust the slide to frame "relationship" 
and clamp the end supports.  Looks maybe like a 2-56 or a 1-72?  My thread 
gauge isn't handy right now.  Need to know what size it is so I can 
fabricate a replacement for it so I can use my pocket slide rule again!

Guess this qualifies as a valid post as I know a lot of glowbuggers who 
STILL occasionally use a "slipstick"!!

73,

Sandy W5TVW
