I might be able to find some at work on Monday. Is Torx head OK? What length do you want?

torx head???

basicly i re arranging the nuts on a kv-1 engine deck(imperial modelbou) so the nuts i use have to be a 2mm wide flat hex head with about a 1mm head thickness(i think) the bolts/screws that come with the panzer iii vents are a dead match for what i want i i can find were they come from :think:

Ah you actually want hex head bolts for "display purposes" Bit more difficult. We just use Torx, they are better than Allen head screws. I was thinking you'd be after screws to secure something internal. I'll still have a look though, but cant promise much.

They do a large range of small fasteners, and have come in very handy in the past. :thumbup:

They do micro taps as well so you can actually screw the bolts in. I did this on my Tiger's fenders, and it looks great. :thumbup:
