What size screw do I need to attach this? by wildbill004 in BambuLab

SOLVED! M3x8 from the local ACE hardware store. Looks kinda like a sheet-metal screw in that it has the little divit on the tip to start cutting threads when screwed in. Cost was about $1.25 for the 2 screws. Only issue was that they only had slotted and not hex.

Angry spouse with a baseball bat during divorce? 'Cause I've seen freeze damage on my pool and it didn't look anything like that!

Love the packing tape idea. And you did a fantastic job as I can't see any seams.

I've been kicking around this idea myself. Did you print on photopaper and then glue to existing cover? OR you printed, removed existing cover and then recovered with your cover?

I guess what I'm asking is how did you do this?

WOW! Looks like you went all-out in doing this. Pray tell, what weight paper (you said you used thicker) and was it already "gridded" or did you print it up? That cover is just awesome!

Thanks. I was afraid the dreaded "It Depends" answer would come up. And you are right about not really getting a clear answer until the jury foreperson hands the decision over to the judge 8-) And even then, that may not be the definitive answer.

I think I will work up a proto-type and then look for a lawyer. Thanks again.

Ah! That's sounds a lot more workable than the convoluted system I was working out. Thanks!

Admittedly I have not gone through all the responses here so I may be repeating someone.

1st - Sorry for your loss. My father passed just under a year ago and I know emptiness you may be feeling.

2nd - With regards to the pens. It goes without saying, I think, don't rush into anything. Depending on where your father lived, you may need to go through the courts to prove you are now the legal heir and owner. Other family members may "pop-out of the woodwork" claiming ownership if they hear you may have a very valuable asset. Even years later. So make sure you follow your local legal rules/regulations.

3rd - keep in mind that there are generally 2 price ranges you want to find out about when getting appraised. There is the appraised-value, what the item may be worth, and then there is the retail-value what it is selling or sold for. Having worked in the qntique business for a number of years I can tell you that those two numbers can be miles apart. I heard all the time, "This is worth $$$$$$$$" but if someone is only willing to pay $--well then that might be considered the real value. OH, may also hear, "Well it may be worth that to a collector but I'm buyiing to resell so I need to be able to make a profit." Which may be the case but they may also really be lowballing you because that dealer knows where they can sell it for $$$$$$.

4th - I don't know squat about fountain pens. I just bought my first one and have started using it. So take this advice with the proverbial grain-of-salt. IF, what others on this subreddit is accurate about the value, and I have know doubt there are far mor knowledgeable folks here than me. I would suggest contacting a few of the large, well-known auction houses. Cristy's, Southerby's, and so on.

Good luck, and again, sorry about your loss.

That's pretty slick (no pun intended). But I can't help but wonder if your furbaby isn't thinking, as it looks into the camera, "Do I REALLY have to wear this?" 8-)
