Good stuff.  Keep the tips coming.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

After cutting, de-burr with a tiny fine tooth file at about 45 degrees, very lightly, then reverse them back through the nut threads/die with lube like WD-40.

I've found that cutting my stand screws on older Penns flush with the stand surface, makes back lashes eaiser to deal with(line don't catch on a stickin out screw end).
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Just saying - why not try button head hex screws. They sit nice on Penn plates and don't split em so much if over tightened. If you want to try I have a few :)

I was thinking about going with them. They look nice too.

How about hex screws for the bridge plate? Anyone using them on Penns and Newells?

Best quote I've received so far is $1522 for 5K pcs. 14-16 week lead time. Let me know how serious of a demand this is....

That's just over .30 each. That's a real good price. Half the price of Penn original slotted screws. I'm in for at least 100.      Rudy
