<p>[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 2541592, member: 360"]What you need is a brass screw (flathead) with a narrow thread, to fit into the hole. That's all these opera glasses used to hold them together. I've never had to find one, so I can't advise on this, but I'd suggest finding a hobby shop or a shop that specialises in antiques restorations or repairs, and see what they can offer. You could try something like a clockmaker's or watchmaker's shop - they always have millions of little screws lying around.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
