parts for pots

Sign in to disble this ad
Need help finding a source for washers and nuts for the small pots that I have acquired on some bart preamps. Even the online guitar/bass stores only have the two larger sizes. I need the smaller ones...cannot even find them at Rshak!

Anybody know a good source for all sizes of those parts?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply...yeah tried Leow's and Homedepot...nothing! There is an old-fashioned hardwarestore I haven't tried yet...also on the other side of town (15 mis away) there is an electronics surplus place. Maybe just get a new pot???

Do you know the thread size? Mouser or Digikey may have them. For example, a quick search on mouser shows shows 1/4-32 electrical mounting nut, 3/32 thick with a 3/8 hex, for $.16 each.
