Order of auspicious clouds

[Harvey R Lipp]

I am trying to find a replacement machine screw for the back of the order. I located one but is in brass and I need steel or stainless steel for better match. I know I will never locate an original so need something that looks close. About a 2 mm metric thread. See picture for example.

Hi Harvey,

That's a small one and probably more easily found in Canada or Europe (metric counties) but perhaps you could try a sewing machine or fishing reel repair facility. Either might have something that size.

Regards,

Thanks Stu. I have tried several such specialty repair shops and so far none have had steel or stainless steel screws. I knew this was a long shot but you never know who has what info or parts. I will try the Canada and Europe idea and maybe Japan. Not sure how to search but will work on it. Thanks again. If you ever want the doughnuts let me know.
