I need one 2.5mm x 8mm grubscrew

The subject says it all

I am building a "Coffee Cup Stirling" and have everything but the subject line. Search my bolt collection and whilst I can find M2 and M3 I have no M2.5. My local nuts and bolts man does not have any.

Could anyone part with one? Postage will be covered of course plus anything you need as a swap!

BTW I am picking up some bronze and aluminium billets from my local scrappy tomorrow, anyone need any particular size?

He still has some sheets of Al 0.2mm thick. I picked up a piece last time and it was perfect for putting behind a plate that I trepanned on the lathe faceplate. Enough to stop marking the faceplate. I will pick up a few more for stock.

He is a helpful chap to deal with. I think his name is Martin.

Best wishes,

If you order I think there is a minimum order value of £3.50 or something like that,I tend to use a fair amount of 3mm and 4mm stuff and use Modelfixings every time.Their postage costs are very reasonable.HTH.

Excellent. Thanks for that Allan. Prices are quite reasonable, I will pull together a small order, I could do with an M2 plug tap as well.

Chris Thanks for that, but I will go with Allan's suggestion as prices are better.
