[billybobs.com](http://billybobs.com) I found these screws online and I was wondering, “Would these be great for M4 8mm axle fitted yo-yos?” I own a YYF Horizon and I’m trying to obtain its stock axle online. If not, then I would like some advice to where I can find these in bulk so I won’t have to worry about buying more again. ---

I get all my stuff from AmazonSupply, since I have Amazon Prime, I can pretty easily get some stuff. I can get a pack of 100 8mm screws from there for ya if you’d like. That is the right size btw. ---

Why don’t you just go to the hardware store??? It’s generally a stock item. ---

Anyone literally stripped their axle instead of the threading hole?
