Those blasted extra small teenie tiny teenee weenie pre-shrunk nuts that go onto the two screws that hold your front brake micro-switch in place....
1. What size are they so I can buy a couple of hundred?
2. Who carries them CHEAP...so I can buy a couple of hundred?
3. Who has developed a technique that holds them in place while you screw away?
4. And if I promise to keep it a deep dark secret (same deep dark place where they roll off too, BTW!), will you be so kind as to inform me?
No...didn't lose any....yet!...but with my numb fingers, I bet I dropped them at least a dozen times today...and had to do the hands & knees thing on the floor. At least now with the new home, I'm not working in a weed overgrown gravel drive way, but it's amazing how many small black specs are on the floor that look like the nuts...that are NOT the nuts.
Next time...ugh!, I'll lay out a white tablecloth on the floor which I used to do at the olde house which has been misplaced like everything I own since literally moving next door! Got the new switch resoldered and put in, but geez!
