Thanks artoodeeto, I'm having fun with it.
![]() I'm busy working on another update but I need some help from folks in Canada or Europe (maybe even the US). I need brass metric socket head button M4 screws like in the picture below. 25 & 40mm length would be ideal. Mcmaster's doesn't have them and I'm striking out at local shops. I've found M4 hex bolts locally and had some partial success with soldering button screws to threaded rod but neither is ideal. Anyone know where to buy the button head ones? |

I can't seem to find anyone who does brass...which is rather odd, you wouldn't think that would be such a strange thing.. I found steel and chrome at Bolt Depot (love them, btw), and steel and aluminum at fastener-express. I'm assuming you already checked the other suppliers in the wiki?

Yep, checked the wiki suppliers and sent fastener-express an email but no response yet. Thanks for looking.

I'll send em a note but it'll likely be a production run which in brass with setup will likely be a few grand. I may have found the limit to my "crazy". Where's Langer when you need him?
![]() BTW, fastener-express says look to Europe. |

Thanks Jon! I'm humbled by the sentiment...especially since I've got another 3 months of work still left and more dubious things planned. ![]() |
