[WTB] Screws for the Pac Tec PT-10 Case

[orange_hand]

Hi,

unfortunately I have lost a set of screws for my PacTec PT-10 enclosure. I need the screws that close the case.

I tried several other screws in my portfolio but none of them fits. The ones for the Pac Tec PT-10 have a different thread. Maybe somebody has an old case which is not used any more and could sell me the 4 screws.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

I found the following:

That's the best way to find something you've lost seemingly forever - buy a replacement!

Thats how it works, if you loose something and cannot find it, the quickest way to find it is to STOP LOOKING FOR IT. Sounds crazy but try it

Any spare 4-40 screws going?
