<p>Hi Eric, my suggestion would be screw connectors for electrical wires, like in the photo.
<span>You can break off the plastic and cut it in half.</span> They come quite small for lamps and cost next to nothing. Take care not to drive the rod too hard, though, because you may shear the tiny screw that holds the shield on the other end. The fancy
Gatan knob also serves as a stopper for that.</p>
<p>regards,</p>

Hi all, <o:p></o:p></p>

I am after a little trick, if anyone has one to replace the little black plastic screws that permit to retract the sample protection cover on a 626 holder. The Gatan rep in Australia charges more than $300 per screw …. There are two of them plus a barrel in
between. <o:p></o:p></p>

<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri", sans-serif;">
Does anyone has a hack for this? <o:p></o:p></p>
