Anyone know where to get those set screws used to fasten the knob to the shaft?
I need a bounch, and I need them cheap. Key, screwdriver style, doesn't matter.

Here is what I mean, but man those are pricey:

That price is for 12 so they're about $0.72 each.  I don't think you're going to find them much cheaper. 

Most hardware stores will carry the Allen head variety.  Both of my local places have them.

If you know the thread, set screws look to be much cheaper from McMaster-Carr (particularly for hex socket heads), but I don't imagine shipping to Sweden would be great.
 
you can also get everything you need Screw / Bolt and Nuts wise in Fabory,
it's the biggest supplier in Europe for those kind of things, they have all sizes, all heads, all finishes, it's amazing.

check the Uk website here:

I normally go directly to the physical store as it's just 15 minutes from my house.

Are you located in Sweden?
I dont think they have a shop there, but do a search
