Hi all,

I have found this site:
http://www.microfasteners.com/catalog/p ... SCMSPP.cfm

wich offer a complete line of screws and nuts, besides other tools and misc stuff.

I am thinking on buying spare set of screws and nuts for my Bioloid, but I cant find the sizes of both.
Anybody knows the specs for the screws and nuts?
I will appreciatte your help, thanks a lot

Hi...
I dont knot exactly the exact size of the screws and nuts, but from my experience, building my own Bioloid, I have a plenty of spare screws, bolts and nuts. If I were you, I wont be bothered by such components, but I suggest to worry about the screwedriver that you will use. In the bioloid package, it is included with one screw driver, but the tip is not really match to the bolts. since you may untighten several bolts during your design for several times, it is better to have the match tip of screwdriver.
Hopefully this will give you a different view.

cheers,

With the exception of the larger pivot screws, all the screws are 2mm machine screws, of varying length. I have had to buy a decently large quantity of 2x8mm screws (the second smallest) because I use about 30 of them on BrainBot to hold the servos to the chest compartment.
