This picture shows what the screws look like that retain the flame globe in the top of a Standard sign. Does anyone know where I might find a couple of them? I have 1 broken one and another that doesn't look so good and I have NO IDEA where to start looking for something like that. I appreciate any and all suggestions! Thanks----KEVIN

I've had luck finding nuts bolts and screws at a place called Fastenal, Or you might want to check your local yellow pages under fasteners or bolts etc.. Barry

Yeah--I use fastenal a lot and I will run it by them next time to town but I already think I know what they'll say. They can get ANY fastener but if they have to have it made, it gets spendy but that may be the only choice.

Kevin,
get a fastener that has the threads that are needed, send the fasteners to me, and I will mill the ends to look like that on a lathe for you for free and mail them back to you. Ryan
FREEDOM oil items wanted.

Thanks Ryan-- I'll be at the Fastenal place next week(100 miles) and I'll check to see if they have any this size. Thay're made of brass so turning them down should be a snap! Never thought of it. HAH!
