Replacement screw for Freestyle projector

Where to get a replacement screw

Any luck.  Samsung tech has been a complete waste of time. The engineers that designed this with plastic 1/4-20 screws need to be fired. . .

Haha I know right. Even if the screws don't break, they are not strong enough to hold the projector in certain positions

Supporting screw undoubtedly poorly designed ie. won't support weight of projector and tightening twists the head off screw. Replacement screw costs $43/screw Canadian from Samsung Parts Canada (I suspect it costs Samsung  a few pennies to produce).We replaced the plastic screws with two metal slotted 1/4"-20  camera screws which came with rubber washers. Cost $9 dollars CDN from amazon . Not so pretty but works just fine.

I found one on Home Depot 
It is Everbilt 1/4 in.-20 x 1/2 in. Phillips-Slotted Round-Head
As the other person said it works and holds fine and a bit better too.

This is the one I have used for about a year and I had no issue at all as long as you use the washer that came with them so It can hold the metal frame nicely.

You might be able to get away with 
1/4 in.-20 x 3/4 in. Phillips Flat Head Zinc Plated

but I'm not sure if a washer or no washer is included in it.

Found reasonably priced replacements on Etsy, and so far they hold up great https://usefulprints.etsy.com/listing/1734026821/replacement-screw-set-for-samsung
