The only way I can purchase the Southco 82-35-313-55 quarter turn inserts used to close the battery panel on Deacons, Breadwinners and possibly other solids is to purchase 100 each. This is the part that goes into the wood. 82-35-313-55 Is there a need for these parts amongst the members? | ||

I noticed they offer samples, so they must have broken packs around. If your reply is "Duh! That's the first thing I did!", then consider me properly humbled. | ||

These parts used on early eighties solid bodies don't move very fast. The Local Distributors had to meet minimum buys and had no stock. I just got off the phone with CBM who had the min order of 100 at $1.05 each - good deal - so I thought I'd see the interest before I grab some. He said his last order was in 2000! BTW, I'm a Planner and Estimator so most of my contacts are for mass quantities for WMDs! Ovation had a talent or a mission of utilizing parts that don't interact with anybody elses stuff! Try getting a hold of Pick Guard screws! In gold! | ||
