Screws for eggy 2

[L J]

anyone know where to get some from? i need the lid screws, a couple of one that fasten the lid to the body and possibly a few springs for the lid...

or alternatively, if anyone has any i dont need and can give them to me then please do

I have loads of springs - the first thing I do when I buy them is take them out - can't help with the screws tho...

i did that, but i need to try them out with spring again cos my lid keeps on opening in a game

try puting a metal washer in one side of the lid.........this wil make it tighter but not as tight as the springs

stil easy to open but not as loose tht it falls open

LJ have found that halfords do a small black car interior trim clip that works perfectly as a replacement screw for eggs

It looks like a black screw and rawlplug- when you screw in the screw it expands the plug- have replaced both my lid screws on both hoppers with these.

Benefits

Loads in packet for spares
Works perfectly
Doesn't have any sharp edges on inside of hopper
Easy to remove and re-insert for cleaning
Doesn't damage lid


Disadvantages

Very slightly less friction than the screws- i have used a singular spring and have had no problems with lids opening or spilling

Hope that helps

Its just a generic clip pack- i went over to the selection of nuts blots etc they have- just had a look and picked these- had no probs whatsoever with em.

Good hunting dude
