[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 755990, member: 25383"] first of all the bolts and nuts most hardware stores carry are borderline junk. Some do carry Fastenall, but they are not all that good as well. Then there is the other problem. Your probably using a #6-48 or a #8-40, and they won't be selling them. Your better off calling the manufacturer of the base and buying a new set of screws (they'll probably just give them to you). Also while getting ready to reinstall the base, buy a small tube of Loctite 222 (sometimes it's called small thread locker) or purple. Blue is not what you want. gary [/QUOTE]
