Hi,

I can't seem to find these anywhere - unless I want to by an entire machine set!

Does anyone know where I can get one of the long, thin screws (M2x14mm according to the parts diagram) that hold the palm-rest in place?

Cheers,

Mike.

If you can't find anybody here that has one, this might help: http://www.microfasteners.com.au/wp-con ... iature.pdf

Page 4 has M2 x 14mm in pan head Philips. Not sure if they sell single unit quantities but they could probably point you to some local retail store that handles their line. One place you can also try are hobby shops. Hardware stores may not stock such small diameter screws but any place that deals with model R/C cars, boats or planes will likely have a good selection of tiny screws.

I'd be happy to give you one, but the cost to ship it would be high... but if there is something else you need the screw could share the voyage. Either way send me a PM if you'd like my help.
