Screw sizes....

Anyone know a definitive guide to the screw sizes used in pinball machines?

Specifically I need to know the size for the flipper switches used on DE/Sega machines. The cabinet leg bolt receivers are held in place by these. They are the same spec as the flipper switch ones, just shorter but I’ll be damned if I can find any. It’s hard enough trying to work out the common sizes. I really can’t get my head around the whole ‘imperial’ thing.

The head takes a 3/16 socket and they are 3/4 long.

As an aside, an idiots guide to pinball screws would be a really helpful post if there are any experts out there. [emoji851]
