VV 2-35 Screws

Post by cweastlick »

I have a VV 2-35 portable that I started tinkering with today. There are only two screws left that holds the "motor board" to the case. I've never seen any like these before. They're brass an about ¼" long with a point on them. Are these special screws from Victor or are they available from a hardware supplier?
Thanks!

Mr Eastlick,

You need Victor part number 21327GP, the specifications are attached.
Number 6-40 screws are standard fine pitch fasteners, a good hardware will stock this size but unlikely a gold plated one. The point is not essential it just makes them easier to start

Here is another example of why everyone working on old phonographs should own a caliper and thread pitch gauge!
