[Elecraft] KX1 Paddle Question

Can anyone tell me what size nut will properly fit the little screw that 
secures the paddle to the KX1?

I'm working on a project to fabricate a stand-alone mount for the KX1 
paddle.  I know a 4-40 machine screw fits nicely through the bottom hole 
and also could be used through the top (threaded) hole, but I'd rather 
try to make use of the stock "thumb-and-forefinger-operated" screw to 
preserve the ability to move the paddle back and forth to the KX1 
quickly and without tools.

I brought the paddle to a hardware store today and nothing seemed to 
mate properly with it !!
