Bleated thanks to all.

It will be some time before I get around to doing anything here.

There is much chaos in my life at the moment.

Life gets in the way sometimes but it is always comforting to have something to look forward to.

Here is the 2-55 parts listing. Notice that the complete spring barrel assembly was available as well as the spring and rivets separately.

This may not be a comprehensive list. When the RCA published this it included only the parts they still had available at that time. Other Victor model parts listings when this appeared (early 1930’s) had severely truncated listings.

I would consider using 6-32 screws which are only slightly larger in diameter as well as being a very common and easy to find size today. However, make sure there is enough room around the existing hole to accommodate the larger hole.
