Found or No Longer Wanted WTB: a few 1 1/4" Square Drive Woodscrews for Atari Cabinets

Thanks for your efforts but these are not exactly what i 'm looking for...they has a bit different Heads.

Haha, yes i'm picky but i want to restore the Cabinets as original as possible.
I could make it easy for myself and could use any other screw also but that's not my way.

I tracked down the post where I shared the Phillips screws that I used:

To OP (and to Kid Raster) let me try to find my old Atari parts this weekend and get back to you, I might have five of those original screws to send you! This forum thread is way too long for 4 screws, lol.

Hey, I'm in good hobby mood tonight. I don't mean to snap at you as every post helps the hobby out. But if the original poster so adamant about getting original screws taken from a real cabinet, I'm sure someone (perhaps me this weekend), will have them for him. Take care.

Alright, here are the 1 & 1/4 inch Philips head ones. On Saturday I will look through my storage bins and hope to find you the Robertson/square head ones.

If you use the wrong screw, you could be screwed.....

Ooooooooh. Bad pun.

Oh, I see that this thread reads no longer needed, but if still needed, please PM me your address.
I can't promise that even shipping 6 little screws in a bubbly envelope will be cheap nowadays.
