    Eww. Plastic knobs are ugly. At least on lightsabers.

    I used to get my thumb screws from McMaster.com. Still do, if it's something I want that Tim doesn't carry. It is more expensive that way, but you can get whatever length you want, depending on the thread pitch and knob size.

    I was crazy enough to spend $10 on just 2 Stainless Steel thumb screws because I wanted to replace the brass screws on my Park Fusion EL saber when I got it a few years ago.

    i kind of liked the k2a. but i'm weird. And looking at McMasters, there's a

    brass 1 inch, part 92421A199
    aluminum, .75 inch, part 94567A570

    and i'm sure they look better than plastic.

    My apologies, TimeRenderer. I will fix that little mistake of mine

    I don't want to use plastic screw cause the are (as J-Loreen said) ugly.
    So, if I'm going to put on another screw for holding the blade tight I want it
    small and not so eyecathing. Any ideas what could do that job?
    The point of this is actually out to lunch.

    Hey, no worries Enolmano. It didn't really bother me at all. I just enjoy looking for things to complain about. I would go with the 3/8 inch hex head button screw that Tim offers.
