Bell nuts anyone???

[RB]

Anybody know where I can find 2 bell nuts for my Stromberg 896B???
I would like to replace the regular ones on my phone, it would look a lot nicer than the silver ones.
Thanks

Do you know the size and thread pitch of the nuts?  If they are a common size, you may be able to find something in a hardware store or online.  You may have to buy more than two, but it doesn't hurt to have some spare nuts around.

I would check with Jerry Williams in the clubs. He used tp have many trim parts. He may have some nuts that would work.

Thanks for the replies.
Jim, Excuse my ignorance, please.  I have no idea what "in the clubs" means.
I don't know much about all the new ways of "connecting".
I barely got email workin.
Any guidance is appreciated

Yeah, tried both of those...
Got absolutely nowhere.
Even joined for a while.
I am sure there is good stuff there,
but damned if I can get to any of it.
Guess I need someone to walk me through connecting with people on those sights.
Because, I don't understand the process.

Have you tried messaging directly the members on here who sell spares/parts?
Could be they haven't logged on or read your thread.

Hope you get it sorted.
