 Re: Buffet left hand nylon pin/dowel

Buffet's design of point screws has a lot to be desired - the thread is way too short because of the plastic 'lock' fitted by the head, and there's only a tiny amount of thread left in the pillar as it's been countersunk deep so the pillar head can acommodate the plastic 'lock' and head on the screw. And when these fall out, they're not easy to replace unless you have a stock of the new screws. If they do need to be tightened, then there's the risk of stripping the thread in the pillar.

And the same can be said about the short thread on their adjustable thumbrest with the (cast) ring/locking screw.

Best thing is to stock up on Buffet thumbrest assemblies, point screws and nylon pins if you can.
