T1 replacement knob screw

[thinc]

Hello all, I recently acquired a T1 and then like an idiot, promptly lost the knob screw (part #1185) that holds the angle guide in place. I've scoured the internet looking for a replacement but can't seem to find one. Can someone direct to me where I can get a replacement? Or does someone know what the size of the screw is so then maybe I can just use a regular screw/bolt. Thank you all for your time.

Welcome to the forum, Thinc. Here is a link to the part you need. I suspect most dealers would need to order it. I would suggest emailing Tormek support. You may get quicker service directly from Tormek (support@tormek.se)

For reference, the thread is M6, as are most Tormek screws. (I just checked it with mine.)If you decide to pick up a local replacement, just take the angle setting part to your local hardware store. Tormek Inc, Tormek's US subsidary, told me the part number starts with "R" for replacement. (Now we both know.
