I'm attempting to replace some screws. The problem is, I don't have any existing to compare against a chart.
How can I measure the tapped length and diameter? Obviously, thread spacing is still a concern.

I went to my local hardware store and worked with the clerk to find the right screw. I was able to measure the millimeters in depth and I already knew it was a machine screw type.
We went through about 12 different screws until we found what we were looking for.
In case anyone was wondering, I was looking for mounting screws to fit the riser of my recurve bow.
