Lost the last screw
-
It's probably my own fault that it's been misplaced, but it's literally the last screw I need.
It's the one that should fit into this black dial and lock the bar from falling out to the side as it spins. What kind/size screw was this and where can I find a replacement?

@paul-nelson-baker It's a set screw (commonly called a grub screw in the UK) and will be metric but sorry I don't know the size, maybe M2 or M3.

The fact that it was a metric screw was the breadcrumb I needed to find a new one! I didn't know that screws could be/not-be metric, which was obviously a naive American assumption on my part, but after trying a couple different ones on a Home Depot run, I found this one pictured here which seems to fit almost like a glove (albeit a bit longer than I would have liked, 10MM would have been probably better but I didn't see that in stock).
I found it in person (pictured below), but here is a link to Home Depot's website.

@paul-nelson-baker They do sell set screws at home depot also, usually in the small drawers but glad you found something that will work.
