Micro-Mark (www.micromark.com) has a good selection of small tools and
hardware (miniature brass machine screws, nuts and washers: 2-56, 1-72,
0-80, 00-90 in sizes from 1/2" to 1/8", matching taps and dies).  The
price is a little steep (pkg of 10 for $2.55), but not bad if you only
need a few.  They specialize in model building supplies that turn out to
be very useful for general tinkering (telescoping aluminum and brass
tubing, diamon needle files, etc.).

Another place to check is Fargo Enterprises (www.fargo-ent.com).  They
deal specifically with camera repair tools and suppies.
