Hey Steve,

Welcome to the wonderful world of harp repair. Your best bet is F&R =
Farrell. You could probably find something at a specialty nuts and bolts =
type store, or possibly a hobby shop, but these screws are so tiny that =
you won't find them at Lowes, Home Depot, or your local hardware store.=20

Here is a link to Farrell's complete kit for replacing reeds. Since you =
already have a knockout kit, this should be all you need for years of =
reed replacements:

Good luck!

  Subject: screws for reed replacement



  I have decided to try and mess with some reed replacement, but I am =
thinking I would like some screws that would replace rivets after I know =
I will mess them up. I have the bill romel tool and think I can replace =
one, but I know i'll ruin a rivet.  Anyone know where and what kind of =
screws? Any advice would be appreciated. I'll be working on Special 20s. =
And yes, starting with junk harps.
