I am in need of a replacement screw for my Century lensboard. I know it is 2-56 (that's what I replaced the original with) but the original is shouldered or something like that. Does anyone know where I might find a replacement? For that matter what should I call it. Thanks very much.

Not sure what lensboard screw you mean. Is this the 2x3 Century Graphic, or the older Century view camera?

Here's a good source for those small machine screws: https://www.mcmaster.com/standard-rounded-head-screws

The screw I am looking for holds the plate that holds the lensboard on my 2x3 century graphic. Thanks for the reply.

They're called Shoulder Screw and the one that holds the board lock may have been special made for Graflex.
