VR3 parts?

[diveconjeff]

I have a properly functioning VR3, but it seems to have lost one of the six screws on the faceplate cover. Suggestions where I might find a replacement?

Any one have a dead one they would like to see go to a higher calling?

VR is pretty good about getting you replacement parts. If not, I would contact a VR dealer they should have some spare parts lying around.

You could take another one out and take it to your local hardware store. They might have the same stainless steel screw there.

You can't go to your local hardware store, VR uses screwy size threads on all their stuff. British Imperial thread pattern or something like that, I'm don't remember exactly what it's called off the top of my head. You know how mad I get when I lose a screw on my rebreather? It's made by VR. I have to have them mail me the part from the U.K.

Thanks for the input. Kind of what I figured. I've got a few thread guides and couldn't seem to get a match. Not to mention the "screwy" head pattern on them.
