tractor supply company has them (#4x1/2"), a buck for a bag of 5. i stocked up yesterday. stainless steel so they're the right ones. you can even get #6-32 oval and flat heads. way cheaper than buying through most suppliers. only problem is they don't carry gold.

Stainless are cool, but not vintage spec. I use 'em anyway. Most good hardware stores carry them. Home Depot did, but I haven't seen them there for a while.
yeah not vintage, but they work for me. locally depot never carried them, neither did OSH, god forbid we even have an ACE locally. the only other place i've seen these is at lowes, but that's 30 minutes from here.

The last set I got at an Ace. I even got the oval headed pickup/switch screws for a countersunk 60 guard.
cool, ace used to be the place here in manstinka. but home depot put them out of business, bastards. the people there actually knew how to help you find what you needed, imagine that! ;)

Here in San Diego the best Ace hardware store around is right in the middle of our main "gay neighborhood" (I don't care) but it makes for an interesting and educational place. If more stores were like our Ace, more people would relax about the "gay thing".
The store is full of very helpful men and women gay/straight, whatever. The rainbow gear is in effect and the store has everything you need from obscure plumbing fixtures to candle holders.
i guess you can not only fix up your house, but you can accessorize it too.
i've learned people are people. i stopped caring a long time ago.
