I agree. I have a K3 boxed up that I should sell. I just took out the
thumbscrew and measured it, although my eyeballs are still calibrated, and it
measured 0.137", i.e. 6-32.

Interesting. Perhaps AI isn’t all it is being touted.
According to the K3S Manual, the ground screw is a #6-32 thumbscrew, Elecraft
Part Number E700070.
As I recall, it is at least 1/2” in length (probably 3/4”), but it has been a
long time since I had the ground screws out of my K3s.
It also has two #6 flat washers on the shaft.
I would note that the same thumbscrew is used on other Elecraft products.
