[QUOTE="DivingDoug, post: 178249, member: 3143"]Wow!! Thanks for the fast responses. The one at BH appears to be designed for a flush mount and has a standard screw thread on the outer diameter as opposed to a wood type thread. Trust me, I did tons of image searches and I found some with the hex heads, some with smooth heads, and some with slotted heads but not brass but but really am wanting the old style slotted head in brass. One of the sets at hardwaretree looks like it might work very well. I am going to contact them and verify the external threads will work with the existing pockets in the wood. Don't want to screw that part of it up. Thanks guys for the help. Will post up once I get it finished to let everyone see how it went. As I have some other antique furniture I have been dealing with, I may hit this board a bit more often. I have an old UHL Steel Art Desk that could use a little TLC. Doug[/QUOTE]
