Hi all - I'm forever getting a grand from 80 years ago in my shop that's minus a leg or cheek screw (or 2). You know the ones - big honkin' #24 wood screws. A REAL wood screw, not some pretender like a lag... You get some great looks walking into a hardware store with one of those babies in your hand! Especially from the old timers.... My question is this: aside from the age old method of scavenging from other pianos and packratting (guilty on both counts), is anyone aware of a supplier that does not require a minimum order of 100 of each size? Let's face it, lags are ugly! My local supplier finally quit carrying the big hosses as of this year, and my supply is very low. Any leads? Mark Potter bases-loaded@juno.com
