Hey everyone, I'm wanting to get into some screw fasteners for some of my blades but I'm not exactly sure what to get. What thread size is ideal (6-32, 8-32 etc..)? and what is a good length for the standoff?
I would like to buy the parts individually on amazon because they are cheaper but am having a hard time finding a good deal on some standoffs. I think the screws will be easier to source but I'm not sure on length or head size for those either.
These will be for smaller to medium sized fixed blades with average sized scales (so not too thick)
Thanks for any advice, links help a lot as well if you want to DM them.
