Replacement grub screw for extruder driver wheel?
The grub screw from the knurled drive wheel in my Original Prusa i3 MK2 kit's extruder seems to have wandered off somewhere, Any ideas where I can get a replacement or three? I suspect finding a metric grub screw in the USA will be tricky. (Yes, I know, we're stupid about that too.) Thanks.

Mine is a M3 thread (3mm X 0.5mm pitch) 3mm long.
I suggest buying a quality one. I have found many cheap ones are near useless as the heads are soft and the hex just strips out.

I have various boxes of spare screws for my Traxxas (US) R/C cars; they are all metric and include the necessary (good quality) grub screws and any other screws I happen to lose...
