I need to find the size of the ring screws for a Sako opti lock ring circa 1959.
My new floor mat that my wife bought me for my old tired legs; well put it this way; every thing I drop bounces like a Russian gymnast.
I've lost more stuff the last month because of her damn mat; but its easier to get a new screw than a divorce.
If anybody can quote me the screw size I will hunt one up.
Mike

If memory serves. They are M3.5 x 7.5 screws made from air soluble unobtanium.


When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then. Lets see today's kids say that about their IPods, IPads and XBoxes in 45 years!

After moving every damn thing in the room, and vacuuming every little corner ;I found it.
Some sorry sucker had placed it back on my work bench this morning, right in the middle, so that I would doubt my sanity.
Don't you hate it when people break into your shop during the night and hide stuff?

I've actually got a spirit in my shop that does that sort of thing from time to time. ... really...


A good job is sometimes just a series of expertly fixed fark-ups.
Let's see.... is it 20 years experience or is it 1 years experience 20 times?
And I will have you know that I am not an old fart. I am a curmudgeon. A curmudgeon is an old fart with an extensive vocabulary and a really bad attitude.

Rod has been many things to many people but I had not heard him described as good looking in any context before. Still, being no prize myself, I am willing to give him a pass on this. Regards, Bill

Well Billy, the last time we met, I kinda figured that we were both pretty good lookin kinda fellers. But then again, we were sitting in that dimly lit pub just down from Larry Nicoles place, we were all pretty tight and Larry was there too and that man is so damned ugly, Osama bin Laden would look good sitting next to him!
