Anyone able to tell me the size of the screws in the hinges and handle? This box is a circa 1930’s CA. I’ve done several searches in the forum but haven’t located the info.

I seem to remember having problems locating screws. Thank heavens for our members here saving every bit and piece of every cabinet which can't be restored - I got original screws.

I still have my original screws but I had the hinges and screws chromed and the cabinet powder coated. All of the screws were difficult to get back in but they all went except one. I need a tap to rethread the cabinet hole.

1/4 -24 stainless steel oval head countersunk threaded all the way up to the head - Harley Davidson motorcycles used this thread size but they are chromed steel and not stainless. I think the taps are very expensive.
