RE: Dryginger2 and Unclestu

Hi Dryginger2 and Unclestu,

@ Dryginger2...Glad to hear this tweak is working out for you. Did you get all the brass screws from Mcmaster-carr? Is it the #8 3/4 or 5/8? From their catalog...I see I do not see the brass screw with the philips round head. Wondering if you still have the product numbers?

Anyways, I am having the hardest time finding the brass screws with the same kind of "threading" as the ferrous ones that I am using now. What I thought were the correct ones, from a hardward store, turned out to be different upon closer inspection.

@Unclestu and Dryginger2...does the threading have to be exactly the same? For example...on my current #8 3/4 inch ferrous ones...there are only 6 threads (doesn't seem like many). I have not seen Mcmaster's #8 3/4 or 5/8 inch...do you know approx how many threads there are?

Will be using #8 3/4 for tweeters....and #8 5/8 for midrange and woofers. I am now wondering whether it's ok to use all 3/4 since is only just a little longer than 5/8. Bad idea?

Unclestu...sorry for being such a pest...:)

Thanks so much.
