Re: MIP set screws
Mine have always been .050

Re: MIP set screws
they could be crappy set screws, or your allen keys are worn. If you think they are worn, cut the end off cleanly with a dremel cutoff wheel and try them again. I have seen badly formed set screws for sure.
Re: MIP set screws
i thought they were .050". mine won't go and it's pretty new.
i'll look around for an unused allen and see how it goes.
thanks.

Re: MIP set screws
if the .050" won't go in, it's possible there is crud in the hex of the set screw. check it out carefully, that's good, it means it's a tight tolerance, and you might just have to force it in there. at least the hex is too small vs. too open and useless.
