Olympus screws

#1 Post by Harold » Fri Nov 26, 2021 5:27 pm

I bought a BH2 BHTU stand with the intent of tearing it down and rebuilding it as either a back-up to or replacement for my existing microscope stand. Thanks to Carl Hunsinger's excellent video and written guides, the job was relatively straight forward and very rewarding. Couldn't believe the crud I found in the pinion assembly and the sliding focus block. It all went very well right up to closing up the back panel when I managed to loose one of the tiny 2mm screws used to secure it. Now 3 out of 4 does an acceptable job, but being the victim of OCD that I am, I won't be completely happy with the job with one screw missing. Does anyone out there know of a source for such screws?
