hi,
anyone know where I could:
#1) download a (pdf?) file containing a size chart for screws?

#2) any websites/suppliers where I could locate some black 2" phillips pan head machine screws?

Well..a simple search showed this... Wood Screw Chart (http://www.wlfuller.com/html/wood_screw_chart.html) or this.. Machine Screws Tapping Sizes / Clearance Hole Information (http://www.marfas.com/machinescrewtapping.shtml)

All depends on what you really need.


As to the screws you need...you may be out of luck...maybe some spray paint?

fastenal is always good for hard to find fasteners but may have to buy box quantities.
