What would I do without each of you. BCR, we know not because we ask not :). I learned long ago there is no such thing as a "stupid question" unless it's the one not asked. Thanks so much. I'm headed back to Home Depot tomorrow to pick up one of these "T-Nuts". Now, I also saw what is called a "Socket Cap Screw which looks as if it has threads. Once the 4 "T-Nuts" are installed on the TT base, what holds them in place? Glue? Finally, how will I know which size to get for the 10/20 bolts? Is this the standard size for my TT? Just asking. Thank you again.bob

Good Wed Morning BCR and thank you for your guidance. I purchased what you suggested (T-Nuts/10/32 bolts) and am on a roll.I have already hammered in the T-Nuts on the base and ordered rounded black footers from Ebay. I just have to wait til they arrive. So far very good.
I ordered some screws to mount my Denon DL-103R to my Yamamoto head shell and found them to be too short. The thickness of the Yamamoto wood head shell and Denon seem to require longer screws. I will try "Needle Doctor" and return to Ebay to see what I can find. Thanks all.bob

Hi Bob,
You should get 10/32 bolts and matching 10/32 t-nuts. The previous owner must have removed them. You don't glue them ,you tap them into the holes with a hammer. You might have to turn the table upside down to do this . Try screwing the bolt into the t-nut at the store before you buy them. Here is the t-nut that should fit.
Hello again BCR,
I clearly understand your instructions and will follow them. I'm off to Home Depot tomorrow early to pick up what I need. I will also make sure the bolt fits the T-Bolt before I leave the store. Thanks again sir.
