Well you've got a lot more to remember than the rest of us. I haven't won an Oscar yet, that's for sure :-).

Oh boy - be sure mind is engaged before hitting the ENTER key - sorry. Another senior moment. They seem to be coming more often every year. I neglected to mention the price. My apologies to all.

I am pleased to offer two bags of NEW MANUFACTURE Stainless-Steel set screws for the R-390 and R-390A line of fabulous vintage vacuum-tube shortwave receivers. There is one bag of 20 pieces of the 3/8", 8-36, 6-point Bristol spline set screws (full-cup end) and one bag of 20 pieces of the 1/4", 8-36, 6-point Bristol spline set screws (also full-cup end). I got tired of trying to scrounge vintage set screws and had a bunch of these made up. They still have the machining oil on them. They fit the R-390/R-390A knobs perfectly. Yes, I know the original used a 3/16" length rather than 1/4", but I had trouble with the shorter ones - I kept cross-threading them - so I had mine made 1/4". Works great.

Price is $25 per set. Shipping is flat rate of $3 for US, $6 for foreign. PayPal preferred - check or money order accepted.
