Title: Seems I lost my little retaining "E" clip for my HAPP Super Arcade Joystick.
Post by: Twinpanther on November 24, 2008, 02:12:23 pm

Seems if you open a part for your cabinet and leave it on your desk to "get to later" all the parts are never there when later finally arrives. 

Anyone know if something like this is available locally?  I did a brief tour of Lowes last night but no luck.  If not I guess I can contact GGG where I got the stick from in the first place.

Thanks in advance,
Twin

Look at your local hardware stores (ACE Hardware, etc).  They should have drawers full of these.

Yeah, Lowes and Home Depot don't generally have 'parts'.

Lowes and Home Depot both in my area carry these clips.  They are around $0.80 each and found in the 'Hardware' aisle, near the the botls and screws.  Look for fasteners.

Look for fasteners.

Look for the "specialty" fasteners section.
Usually the drawers and such with stainless hardware, etc.
