Question
I have a Becker type wall clock and need one screw to hold movement onto hanging bracket. In fact I need two of them.

Answer
Hi Richard,
    Clock supply houses have many assortments of clock screws. There are also movement mounting screws which may be just what you need. They are thick, very short screws that hold the movement to the back panel.
    There are many clock supply houses that you could Google. in my opinion, Timesavers and Merritts Antiques are among the most complete.
