I have a pr. of wing dividers made by Wm. Johnson Mfg. of Newark, New
Jersey which is in need of a thumb screw to secure the setting. I tried
all of my loose odds and found nothing that fit. The local Bolt Supply
House agreed that an 8-32 almost fits, but jams up quite quickly, and
suggested it may be an 8-28 which is not available here due to lack of
demand. ;-(
The sales person suggested that even though it is an American tool, that
it may be a British standard threading. Can anyone shed light or point
me to a supply house, or maybe spare an extra? It's a decent tool, with
a fine adjustment screw, and I'd like to put it to use.
