Size of Happ's trackball mounting kit screws? I lost mine...
« on: August 09, 2004, 03:54:55 pm »
I... umm... misplaced... the screws from my Happ's trackball mounting kit.  

The screws I'm referring to are the ones that screw from the bottom of the trackball into the mounting plate.  *NOT* the ones that are built right onto the mounting plate and are drilled into the wood.

Anybody know what size and length screws these are?  I've contacted Bob Roberts and he doesn't sell them.  He said Happ's won't sell him the trackball hardware mounting kit (eg. just the screws, etc).  

So I'm assuming that unless I can figure out the size (and length) of these screws that I'll need to buy a whole 'nother mounting kit...  *ugh*

One option would be to bring the trackball with you to lowes or home depot and test out screws. Most of their screws and bolts are loose.

I don't know how helpful this will be, but the screws are 1 7/8" long (not including the head). The package includes 4 screws, 8 flat washers, and 4 kep nuts.

Thanks for the help!

I managed to find my screws by some amazing luck.  They were buried below a bunch of boards in my garage.  I have no idea how I found them....

Thanks again for the help though!
