Hello, I'm a relatively new member looking for info. regarding replacement screws for old Joes.
Does anyone have a good source? Can anyone tell me the size etc of the screws? I look forward to getting to know you. Thanks, shawn |

Hey Shawn,
Welcome to hisstank. The only site I've seen that has screws in stock is GiJoeHeaven.com, they have 100 for $8.29 and 20 for $1.99, but the shipping is $6.99, not sure if you want to spend that for some screws. There might be others that know more places that have them, I just never really looked before. I know SmallJoes.com has screws but were all out of stock when I looked a few minutes ago, you could send them a message and see if they will be getting more. I'm sorry I don't know what size they are. One suggestion I have would be if you have one of the old screws try and take it to home depot or something like that and who knows they may have them, probably not but you never know. Not sure if I've helped or not. |

I don't know the size, but I have heard that the tiny screws used to hold together audio cassettes can be used as a replacement. I've never tried this, but they look to be very similar in size, so if you have any old junk tapes around, give it a try.

silverc, it works!!! I found a stack of junk tapes with perfectly shiny screws. I knew Milli Vanilli was good for something!

Cool, it's good to know that Milli Vanilli can give new life to old joes.

If it didn't work I was prepared to "Blame it on the Rain."
