Brass screws

[riclepp]

Quick question/s

Does anyone one here make or able to make brass screws (slotted/countersunk?

If not, how hard would it to do and what equipment is needed

I ask, as I have nearly exhausted my supply of old stock brass screws and I don't like the modern "Factory Bright Brass screws" as they are way too soft.

Many thanks for any help/advise offered

I've used them before to get hold of some old brass screws and they came up trumps.
