Fwd: [R-390] Bristol set screws

[Flowertime01 at wmconnect.com]

Todd,

Sooner or later someone will find a NOS box with about 98 of 100 of these 
8 x 36 set screws with a spline key on a shelf some where and offer them to 
us in
the mail with 4 or 5 in an envelope stuck to a bit of tape to keep them from 
getting lost in the mail.

You may try to get up as much information as you can along with the spline 
key size, and stock numbers of the one each part in a bag. Then put a post on 
the want to buy at E-pay. Dave Medley does R390's and if you really need a 
couple you can always send him an E-mail and ask for a couple at his cost. He also 
likely has the clamp bolts with the spline heads. But by 1975 we were just 
using a 4-40 bolt with a standard Allen key head.

You can still get the small knobs from Fair Radio with a spline screw in them 
just for the replacement.

I think a project of love to find some 8 X 36 set screws with any type of key 
head is in order. As Hank and Dave will tell you, you will never make any 
money at it. But it sure will earn you a lot of points that never expire and will 
be redeemable into the next life.

Does any one have an E-pay account who would put a post up for us if we 
collect the data?
