Any source for replacement HMV No4/5 needle screws?
I have two soundboxes now with missing needle screws... does anyone have a good source for replacements either original or new?

Member ‘soundgen’ might be able to help. He hasn’t posted for sometime so hopefully not retired.

I blame autocorrect, mistype one letter and end up with the wrong word.

Auto-correct can be helpful, until it starts guessing and then "knows" what you want...
