how to replace battery terminal?

[davidgibson999]

Managed to strip the battery terminal screw and I think the thread is now gone in the brass insert too - any ideas where to get a replacement screw and "head"?

Thanks!

I'll try Stuarty! And I'll maybe venture into Wolfie's if I'm feeling brave... I just wasn't sure if it was something that's readily available...
Thanks Gary
See you at the weekend (if I get a terminal!)

Don't worry about finding a copper screw and nut. A common steel nut and screw will work just fine. It only holds the terminals in close contact with the leads. If necessary simple file a square nut to fit inside the post on the battery.
