    #DuckDuckFedi #3DPrinting #ScrewsOfMastodon

    Alright, my normal search-fu has been thwarted by modern search "technology."

    I've stripped the threads on one of these screws (and maybe damaged the others) that holds down the bed of my Qidi Plus 4, so I need replacements, but what even are these screws? Are they custom made or are they something I can actually get replacements for? Qidi doesn't have any for sale on their website and "oval head screw" is something else altogether.

    Two screws side by side with heads that are rectangles with rounded corners, the centre of the heads have a hexagonal socket for some inexplicable reason since the holes they slot into don't let them turn.
    A close-up of one of the heads which could also be considered two half circles with a straight section connecting them with a hexagonal socket in the middle. Though the metal is mostly uniform, there is the hint of a circular outline that might have been the original screw head.
