Eric,

Go to the hardware fastener section of your favorite hardware store or DIY store. Most of them have a "tool" (card) to determine screw and thread sizes - use it and buy the appropriate thumbscrew or other fastener.

To help you a bit, I would say that the screw thread is either 4-40, 6-32 or 8-32 - those are the commonly used sizes.

Yes, there may be an Elecraft thumbscrew. Once you determine the size, look through the KX3 assembly manual to see if there is a match in thread size.

I rigged a camera mout arm to my recumbent trike.  It folds in to the frame 
while riding, then I fold it out for mounting the AX1 to it wih the TAX1 when 
stopped.  However, I noticed on the TATX1 that although it has a threaded hole 
for attaching radial wire(s), there is no thumbscrew provided, nor is there any 
mention in the instruction sheet as to what the thread size is.  Attaching the 
radial to my KX2 is a PITA as it is another wire to manage getting in and out 
of the seat.
Has anyone figured this out?  Is there an Elecraft thumbscrew that will fit?  
Another source?
Aside from this it is a wicked cool setup if I do say so myself.  :-)
