you are correct in the sizes. I don't know the thread but the guy at the hardware store said it was a coarse thread. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Hodges" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, October 24, 2009 11:19 AM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] 1/2 inch machine screws
Can you clarify the number and size machine screws you need? I think you are saying you need a quantity of Four Screws. Is that right? Then the size is one half inch Diameter by one inch long. Is that right? Next, you want a flat head with a screwdriver slot in it. Correct? Next, do you know the number of threads per inch? Last, Do you know if it is a metric or standard size? The reason I'm asking all this is because I'm going to a store today and I'll look for it for you. Answer as soon as you can as I'm leaving shortly.

Some time ago I purchased the T-nuts for my drill press and they take a 1/2 inch screw. I was at two hardware stores and they do not have that screw. They have hex head and cap head but not a flat head straight slot screw. There is something that I want to try before I purchase a top. Tomorrow a machinist friend is coming over. I talked to him about drilling and tapping to make the table relatively permanent. --- Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources for the blind. http://www.lennymchugh.com Lenny Please Copy and Paste into New Message to pass along.
