Review on Favordrory 6#-32 Anodized Aluminum Thumbscrews: Efficient and Stylish Computer Case Thumb Screws in Green, Set of 10PCS by Adam Hardy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for my Dynaco ST70 and VTA

Okay for all of us with those vintage cell amps, we all know how tedious it is to keep removing and replacing those cells, especially with VTA when you need it to access triode and pentode switches. Find a screwdriver and then carefully remove 4 screws without scratching the nickel plate or stainless steel surface, then try not to lose the screws. But these thumbscrews are the answer. The perfect size so nothing gets damaged or shorted out inside. My ST70 was an early version between 1959 and 1963 so self-tapping screws were used, but a quick pass with a tap or just a 6-32 screw and you're done. In hindsight I would have preferred a steel thumbscrew to an aluminum one as I could see how the threads could easily cross when screwed into steel or just wear out, but I knew screwing them in and with a bit of care should do it all the way Life. Highly recommend and they look great.
