    Replacement screws for attaching mold to handles

    I have a mold that needs the screws to attach the mold to the handles. Can someone please point me in the right direction for a few of them? The mold is a Lyman 2 cavity.

    Dig around at a good hardware store in their slide out bins where the little stuff is....

    Or, call Lyman and make your best deal.
    They'll send ya a couple for free- or maybe charge a couple of bucks.

    I got desperate one time and drilled & tapped them to a slightly larger size, 8-32 I think,
    but that was a emergency, and last resort.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Well, I found some 8-32 7/8" socket head screws for sale. The link above did not have them available. I got them from Tacoma Screw Products, but I had to buy 100 (it only cost $15 bucks for all of them). I was glad to find ones that were made in the USA, the ones on Amazon seem to be made in the PRC.
