Re: WHERE TO GET PARTS in CANADA!!!
Does anyone know where to buy machine screws with the built in washer? I tried McMaster-Carr but no luck. These are the screws that usually hold down post rubbers. Pinball Life has them but I'm sure there is a local vendor in Ottawa/Canada.

Re: WHERE TO GET PARTS in CANADA!!!
I haven't made it out there yet. I'm trying to avoid unnecessary "browsing" trips. I was hoping someone in the community would say "Yes, they have them here" before I ventured out. I enjoy hunting for pinball parts normally, but not during the pandemic.

Re: WHERE TO GET PARTS in CANADA!!!
I was there a couple a days ago to grab a few parts. He didn't have this screw. I'll go take a look at OFS. I just thought after 10 years of pinballing someone here would have found a local source already. Often I think we are just asking the same questions over and over and re-inventing the wheel when it comes to pinball part purchasing in Canada.steamfitter wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:03 amIf your in no rush , call Mike at pinball medics he orders every week from pinball life .

Well, not much of a secret, but Pinball Medics is expanding! A brand new location will open at 923 Girouard in Montreal, corner of St-Jacques, so close to Decarie and Turcot interchange.
Parts, machine sales, and machine / board repairs... will be great!

Re: WHERE TO GET PARTS in CANADA!!!
UPDATE! I edited the list a bit, as I was PMed Robert's new parts site and website address. I didn't get any confirmation but I figure it is OK.
I am out of the loop so at some point I will have to inquire on the status of certain stores. I was told that Player One no longer sells many parts... to be confirmed.
If any have more suggestions, post them here and I will edit/add the first post.
