Where can I find a replacement for the tiny screw that holds the lead in place? I lost mine.

I would email Staedtler. They do have a spare parts kit, part number: 557 ET "Spares Set" but it costs as much as a new compass. If you happen to have dozens of compasses that need to be serviced, then perhaps the kit it worth the money. I do not see the kit on Amazon, but did find it at other various online merchants.

There's a tiny star screw right under the L on the metal part of the key. I hope that helps.

Try contacting the murder mystery company about this. If they can't replace or sell one to you, I can make a photocopy of what you need if I have the part. I have many murder mysteries and re-use them with new participants. Susan (meowdoc@hotmail.com)

Give the good folks at Lyman a call. They will send the screws no charge to you. Good people. The number is 1 800 225 9626 or 1 800 423 9704. They are impossible to find at a hardware store. Those guys will help you out. I lost a couple and they sent me a whole set. Good luck. Jack Sparke

You can just go to the hardware store as well. Take one of the other screws with you and ask for something similar. They're likely M5 screws and you just need to match the length. Much much cheaper than going to the LBS.

It came with one piece of lead in it, presumably No 2, with no mentioned brand. If you're wondering what type of lead to use, any type of 0.5 mm will do.

I'm sure you can. A specialty knife sharpening shop will likely have a selection of mini screws. Otherwise, there are specialty screw and bolt suppliers who can match a screw and provide replacements. Check locally or on the internet. I have lost my knife, so I can't even look at the screws to make a guess on what it would take.

Did you try a hard ware store, Hone Depot or Lowes. You might be able to find a screw (if not a thumb screw, that may work to attach the bottom part

I would need to know more about what you are talking about to possible help you. But if you have a watch like I have I had to find a very small screw which was holding a very tiny piece of metal resting on the battery. I needed jewelry tools.

Sorry but I have not replace one, but if I had to, I would go to Sally's supply store and ask them. Hope that helped....

One simply pushes the top end to retract the claws of the holder on the bottom, and the leads needs to be carefully inserted through those claws. The lead just "drops" in. There are no threads of any sort, but instead a solid tube to house the lead.

You can buy a new screw from any hardware store. However, the only screw is the one that holds the circuit board To the back base of the light. If you lost that it must have been disassembled .

Using a slotted screwdriver, unscrew one of the cutter pins and pull it out. This will remove the helical cutter so that you can access the piece of lead and push it out. Then put the cutter back in place and reinsert the pin.

I would take the screw to a hardware store and see if you can buy another one.

I us a very small flat screwdriver that I have in a minature tool kit. Go to bottom corner and gently litil nit snaps loose. Works like a charm.

You may have to re-wire the lead; however, it all comes with the unit. It is just a matter of taking the wire nuts off to change to the new connection... a very easy process.
