Now that I have the last pieces of a full set of new gaskets coming, (thanks brgman!), for my Monitor 10Bs I've been thinking about replacing all the woods crews with Hurricane nuts and machine screws when I replace all the gaskets. If anyone knows the correct size of Hurricane nuts and screws to use with monitor 10s could you please list them for me.
Will the same size nuts and screws work for tweeters, MWs, PRs and terminal cups? Would be nice to also know the correct size holes to drill for the nuts. I would really appreciate any information.
I know that Larry's rings are the best way to go. However, I've read that he no longer has them available and if he did they would probably be out of my budget.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

8-32 Hurricane nuts, with 1" socket head cap screws with 4 mm washers. You may be able to go shorter on the screws if the MW's are recessed, I can't remember.
This should work for the MW's, PR's and terminal cup. Not sure about screws for the tweeter. You may need oval head rather than socket head. I bought oval head at ACE hardware since I didn't need that many; the socket head I ordered on line."Science is suppose to explain observations not dismiss them as impossible" - Norm on AA; 2.3TL's w/sonicaps/mills/jantzen inductors, Gimpod's boards, Lg Solen SDA inductors, RD-0198's, MW's dynamatted, Armaflex speaker gaskets, H-nuts, brass spikes, Cardas CCGR BP's, upgraded IC Cable, Black Hole Damping Sheet strips, interior of cabinets sealed with Loctite Power Grab, AI-1 interface with 1000VA A-L transformer -
Thanks for the info. I appreciate it.
