Does anyone here have any clue where I can find
6-32 1/4" screws with torx heads of the sort one would use to secure hard drives?
The only source I know is scrouging HP stuff and I'd really like a better source than
that. Philips screws annoy me to no end..
I don't have a source for those custom T15 cheese head screws, and if you find a
source for them in bulk, I'm looking for both the 6-32 and M3x0.5 sizes myself.
If you just need a few button head screws for a project, I can probably help you out. If
you need a lot of them, I'd say look on eBay since McMaster-Carr's prices for
button head screws is /extremely/ high. I bought some stainless steel button head 6-32
screws (I think they are T10) ~6 months ago but I already had a small package of 6-32
button head in zinc plated steel.
