Why not take out a thumb screw and take it to someone who has a selection box of grub screws if it's just a grub screw you need. Local garage perhaps but certainly engineering machine shop, tractor dealer, lawnmower dealer etc. would normally keep selection boxes of things like that.

Sorry to revive an old thread - did you find out the grub screw size in the end? I presume they'll be 2BA?

If they are the same as whats on his banksticks they will be 6mm, you could always pm him defiant.one on here to double check

I'm thinking of doing the same and tempted to try and make my own thumbscrews/levers.

Keith charges peanuts for replacements, well worth asking him.

I probably will end up ordering them when I realise that mine will be **** and I will be too lazy to try to make them.
In my head I am picturing a set of low profile lever thumbscrews.
