Chassis bolts for '30s sets
#3

The other thing I came up short on was the speed nuts that hold the speaker in on the Baby Grand cabinets that the speaker screws in from the rear with wood screws. These do not screw into the wooden part of the cabinet so much but into speed nuts placed between the backside of the front arch and the front panel. On a couple of my sets they were missing as was the panel.

I tried the box store but all they had was little dinky ones. The hole was the right size but the overall size was dinky. MC came thru with the proper size on both accounts. The only down side is that they only are sold in parcels of 50. Each set use 3, so for $14 you'll get a lifetime supply.

Part number 90528A113

Edit use 90528A112. The '113 are too large and won't tighten w/the #8 screws. The '112 are for #6 screws and work fine!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
