Does anyone need replacement or extra metric screws for the standoffs, RF shield, or back of the IOpener/GCT?
My local hardware store ran out and I'm thinking of buying a box of each. It should be enough for anybody else who wants some.

8mm screws - back of the IOpener/GCT. get rid of those damn Torx security screws on the IO.
6mm screws - IOpener case, rf shield, standoffs
5mm screws - GCT case, rf shield, standoffs

I'll set it up so that you just mail a dollar and a return address (preferably already on a label) and I can mail back some screws. I'll have to figure out how many I can mail in an envelope without it getting too heavy and a good way to protect them from the USPS.

Count me in, especially to replace those damn Torx screws.

As far as mailing, I would take a toilet paper roll and cut it in three pieces. Take a section, tape one end, put the screws in, then tape the other end. Should be light enough to send with a 34 cent stamp, assuming you're only sending 10 screws or so. Otherwise use two stamps.

The envelope shouldn't rip open, but you may have to write "PLEASE HAND STAMP" on the envelope.

Sure, I'd be willing to pay a buck or two for some of these screws. I inherited an orphan machine that was missing a few of these, mostly around the perimeter of the case, and I could never find a local supplier.

update: the 5mm and 6mm screws arrived but the 8mm (the IO stand screws) are on back order and I'm still waiting for them.

Hi,

I was just trying to order some screw to replace the Torx screw in the back of my iOpener from http://www.mcmaster.com. However, I am not sure exactly which one will fit. Does any one know for sure?

Thanks
