Just wondered if anyone knew where I can locate the long screws that fit the Wattgate casing please? By that I mean replacements, i am aware of where the holes are ;) Cheers

In fact all the screws for the wattgate casing need replacing, so if anyone can help please?

You rounded the heads ;) The trick is a good screwdriver, apply pressure when turning but do it very slowly :)

A brand new one is only £19.50, can you not stretch to that? :)

The screws are USA thread so no one over here makes them.

LOL. it's not a case of not being able to buy a new one David.......i've got a few lying in a bag and I've lost the screws.........I don't like throwing things out when they still have life left in them, I was brought up watching "The Good Life" (blame my mum & dad) :lol:

send them to me and I will hopefully send fully functional ones back free of charge as I also have a box full of cases etc, etc. I will clean the contact tangs for you in my ultrasonic cleaner

my address is on my website

Cheers Mark, if can't find any that fit in this box i've just got i'll give it a go :cool:


David, thanks for your generous offer, again, if i can't find any in this box I will contact you, but you'll have to accept a drink at the very least..........i don't expect people to do things for nothing

Jonboy, thanks for the link, if all else fails i'll give them a go
