I used some spares I had for my RM2, I dislike the tiny little Allen wrench.

Chowder and I linked some good hex drivers some pages back. Good hex screws and drivers are hard to beat. I can't stand fiddling around with tiny screws. Put it on the driver and it holds on until it's threaded. No slipping or stripping to boot.

I got 100 m2x4mm stainless cap head screws from mcmaster Carr when I got my first rda and I've put them on everything since.

For m2 cap heads you'll need a 1.5mm or 0.63" hex driver. Hudy, MIP, EDS... All top notch. Should never need another driver the same size for vamping your whole life.

Sorry, I shouldve specified I was looking for the allen screws for the Cyclone.

Didn't realize you were looking for spares and just assumed you wanted to replace the allen screws.

I bought the philip screws but went back to the allen screws and got one of these.

That's how I roll....

I love Hudy products! Tiny Allen grubs are enjoyable now.. Not just something to be tolerated.

I have at least 30 pieces of Hudy stuff the body readers are awesome for making non Reo bottles work without the risk of drilling ones hands. Every atty I touch sees nothing but Hudy. If they weren't such a complete pain to deal with as a company I would have been a distributor years ago!

btw: the m2 grub screws are available on ebay cheap, like 50 for $6 cheap. Order 50 m2 x4mm and 50 m2.5 x 5mm and you will have a lifetime supply for $15 for most attys currently available with free shipping, no less.

Waiting on an invoice for 10 Divos. Stay tuned... I should be able to do these for $66 shipped baring any European hijinks....

CH,
Don't know if you saw an earlier post from me . Was wondering if you got to take a look at the twister atty?

 

[xtreme101]

I thought it was you CH who recommend this Hudy tool in a previous thread but had to go back and check to be sure. Yep it was you indeed. Thanks

I hear a lot of people complaining about the 2mm set screw coil screws being Allen grub screws and how you must replace them with Phillips headed screws, I will never understand dumbing down a great product so you don't have to evolve. Buy a .035 or .9mm (they are the same thing but sold both ways) driver, Hudy, MIP, etc and embrace the precision of the system. I will agree the supplied Allen wrench sucks but with the correct driver it becomes a pleasure to re-coil. Besides the driver will also give you a coil wrapping option, personally I have a Hudy with a 1.8mm shaft that I use for all of my coils (not sure if you would call that a micro, nano, medium coil but it works great for me. I will post a link to the one I use.

Why am I puzzled at the fact that y'all are recommending a US/SAE sized tool for metric sized fasteners?

 

[caveat]

Looks like Divo is a smaller chamber? Better flavor the main advantage I'm guessing?

It's also sold as .7mm, smartypants....

Must have missed it... That looks easy enough. Looks like it uses a similar pin to the reactor, hopefully not as hard. No problem either way.

Uhm -- 0.035" is a whole lot closer to 0.9mm than it is to 0.7mm.

 

[Train2]

I got these. They work...

So YOU'RE the reason they are out of stock !

Too bad Amazon doesn't have them.
I'm having a real hard time justifying $19 for a single use tool, but RC stuff is usually way overpriced anyhow.
It's probably a very good tool, but....

 

[Rossum]

Wow -- Jake resisting a purchase? When has that ever happened? Oh yeah, when something is out of stock.
