Anybody know where I can find some replacement screws for a TSU-1000? The ones in mine are slightly stripped out, and I'd like to replace them before I can't get them out ever again.

That'll teach me for using the wrong tool. :P

go to a REAL radio/computer shop...........not radi-dodo shaq or comp u$a.

one of those places where there's "stuff" on the shelves in dusty, brown, cardboard bins and parts come in plastic bags with wires hangin' out of 'em.

bet you'd even find some phillips head screws that'll work just fine. (might have to ask the guy at the workbench with the magnifying light, smokin' a stinky ceegar (RIGHT THERE IN THE STORE!!!)though..........could be scary)!

www.digikey.com carries most screws. You'll need to know size, threads/inch and length. You'll also have order around $3 worth - which is like 100 pieces.

Or, your local watch repair place MIGHT have what you need. They will have a lot of tiny screws.

how far is audioplex technologies from you? Bet they have some people who could point you to localish suppliers.

note that the screws will probably be metric or whatever the euro equivo of sheet-metal screws is. ISO, mabye?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
