I'm asking for a friend. Does anyone know if black screws exist for the SXKs?
I'm sure there are some somewhere that fit, but I've never heard of colored screws for the SXK. I used a Sharpie on the heads of mine. :D

Remember, the threads on the SXK screws are for some reason different than for the authentics.

Some cardboard with appropriate sized holes to hold up the screws and some spray paint will get ya any color your heart desires haha.

My YFTK positive clamp snapped through the screw hole today :( .. it's only been used with 28g wire and I've always been careful tightening it ...

I like the xeta but $20+ for such a short life, I'm in two minds about buying another one...

A follow up on my YFTK Xeta from FT that broke after 3+ months of use, I ordered it on the 4th of September and I lodged a ticket with FT mid Jan...

They replied today saying:
"We will contact the supplier to resend you the post. Due to the Spring festival holiday and the recent outbreak of Coronavirus, we can not confirm if the supplier has resumed to work. If yes, we will urge them to send the item as soon as possible. You will need to wait a longer time than usual, is it ok for you?"

That sounds promising... :)

With Chinas shutdown and such I didn't bother following up with FT about my broken Xeta +ve post until a couple of days ago...

As they requested a month ago I finally got around to placing another order for some cheap coils, and then bumped the Service ticket, they've added a complete replacement YFTK Xeta to the order...

I'm fairly impressed with FT/YFTK, great service replacing the Xeta considering I used it for 3 months before the post broke...

Still loving the Xeta+BB, I bought a second Xeta from 3f back in Jan, it's all I use...

I finally broke down and ordered a BB. Have the following coming from Canada. What else do I need? Someone on the Shinitis thread pointed me in this direction. I’ll start back at page one Monday when I have more time and peace to digest/make notes.

That's a great start! If I'd have known ahead of time I would have recommended grabbing a couple extra boros while you were there. No biggie, but you will soon see how handy they can be.

I didn’t think of it until after I placed the order. Duh, 3 rbas, 1 boro :(.I need to find condensation plugs and extra glass doors too?

Not the end of the world, but you do wanna get some. If you really like it, be prepared to soon have more crap than you ever dreamed you would when placing this order.

Decent prices on the leather sleeves! Dotaio ones usually run more than that unless you find one or Etsy.
I’ll get some condensation plugs from them, since they’re US based. Better chance of getting it right now than China. Checked Enushi, but they’re pretty cleaned out of bits I need I *think*.
@gsmit1 , I have the ones you suggested saved.
Thank you both for the guidance. Not my first rabbit hole to jump into willingly :lol:.
