[SlimShavings]

Hi Ya'all I got a couple 55's and a 45 that don't have normal "merican bolts. And i know that there not metric. i happen to remember from my BSA/Norton days that you guys used a Whitworth thread. Reckon they could be that. And are they available over there

TIA

Slim,

Bad news; I fear you may be all out of luck. Stanley used a thread all their own, the stinkers. It wasn't even consistant which one they used, as far as I can tell. BugBear is more au fait with the whole thing; this might explain the technicalities better than I.

Cheers, Alf

Hi Slim,

You could email Jon Zimmer. His email address is on his website:

http://www.jonzimmersantiquetools.com/index.html

He may have spare parts. I've bought from him before (ok too many times ) and he's one of the best to do business with.

Also, contact http://www.stjamesbaytoolco.com/. They may have the screws/parts you need.

Good luck,
