[amayausers] Re: Hook question

You are welcome Connie, one more thing, when and if you do replace your hook
don't throw the old one away. Some of the screws on your old hook may be (
read-- may be-- ) compatable replacements in future situations where a screw
may be lost.

I was told that the paticular screws you were refering to are actually
custom fitted to the individual hook and their placement on the hook.( this
is why the statement of cannot be replaced is made)  The fit of these screws
is very precise so that thread cannot get hung up on them is my best
guess......but just in case I keep a couple of old hooks in storage ......
