[R-390] 8-36 stainless-steel hex-socket setscrews used in the R-390A Knobs

[Scott, Barry (Clyde B)]

BTW, McMaster (www.mcmaster.com) has #8-36 x 1/4" set screws with hex
drives, but they are standard alloy steel, not stainless.

I think this has been mentioned before on the list but I'm not sure when. 
Does anyone know of a source for the 8-36 stainless-steel hex-socket
setscrews 
used in the R-390A small and medium size knobs? The length should be 1/4".
They 
don't have to be Bristol socket, regular hex-socket will do. I tried Small 
Parts Inc. but no luck there, they don't seem to be able to special order
them 
either. Stock Drive Products don't list them. Must be a really oddball
thread 
size to order. Thanks for any leads. 73 Todd Roberts WD4NGG.
