Usually you get 2 sets of bolts, one set short and one set long?
I might have some here, how many mm long do you need?

hey Fran!
I've tried to google what bolts an elektra on an rb250 needs but have come up short!
the ones supplied ( by the chap whom I bought the deck from) are I'd guess 4-5 mm too short, just protruding but nowhere near enough for a bolt to catch?
I can get a set of three s m l online if I can't find summat manana....
(actually, the ones he gave me are only 8mm long, I'd say an extra 2 would suffice)

Aye, I've seen and indeed used worse. Keep an eye out for a replacement alright but work away for now.

Hi Jaybee. I have the Feickhert protractor if you want to borrow it or want me to do the set-up for you. Cheers. Dave.

Is that what Father Jack uses to set up his record player!?
Thanks for the offer, I may well call on you once the moving house is complete; at the moment she's not connected to anything!
Still shopping for a phono stage on wigwam, and my speakers are mothballed again, as our new armchairs and sofa are currently occupying every square inch of the old house!!

Hi Jaybee, your local chemist shop should be good for a syringe in the 0 - 1.0 ml range.
Enjoy the tt.
