I'm missing four of them to hold the upper back board on my Budda SD30 combo.

I think the screw is a 3.5mm, 30mm ish long screw, slightly domed top but still countersink.

Tried to source something at B&Q but they only had zinc plated nastiness whereas I think these are nickel or chrome so if anyone knows where I can lay my hands on either four that are the same as this OR ten of something similar so as I can swap out the ones holding on the lower back board as well that would be simply grand

Cheers

    Hi Rob

    I'm assuming these are bolts not screws?  The photo isn't conclusive. Is the 3.5mm measurement the diameter of the threaded shaft?  I assume the 30mm is the length of the shaft not including the top?

    If you can confirm I will check and see if I have the right size. 

    If you could also measure the diameter of the cup washer too and the hole in the centre......I've just ordered a box of 50 of these but.....they're brass!  They are VERY cheap to buy though or you are welcome to 10 brass ones?  Mine are 8 gauge.

    Cheers

    Guy,

    Hey mate, thanks for responding.

    No, they're self tapping screws as opposed to bolts and I assumed that it was 3.5mm thread because it looks to be the same thickness as a 3.5mm self tapper that i offered up against it in B&Q.

    Err as to length, I'll check later. Thanks mate

    Hi Rob

    OK.....if they're screws then the length probably isn't that important. 

    I've found 4 screws that have a 3.55-3.65 diameter and also 4 silver cup washers.  These are not new so many not be what you're after....they're certainly not as shiny as the ones in your photo.  However, I can let you have the screws and 10 new brass cup washers so you can replace all the washers?

    Check the photo below:

    @surfguy13

    Guy, hello mate, sorry I dropped off of radar yesterday, ermm if it's okay with you I'd quite like to take the four silver ones with screws that you've illustrated in the pic above. The one I photographed looks distinctly less 'shiny & bright' in real life so I think it would work.

    I'll PM you

    cheers

    Let me have a look tomorrow, I reckon I have some SS screws and plated washers to match left over from when I made a mate a DrZ 1x12 replica. Apologies for the size of the pic, I just dragged the original into Dropbox.
