As far as I know they are normal 10mm M3 fine pitch screws with a flat philips head. You should be able to get them in any decent hardware store. But I can measure one up and let you know the exact dimensions if you like.

Overall length is 12mm, threading length is 9,5mm.
For the rest, Bryce gave you the details ;)

My 10mm was only a guess, but if it's really 9.5mm I wasn't far off :)

Be glad it's a CPC with metric screws, the Acorns all have imperial sized screws and they're almost impossible to get these days. At least in Germany.

Ok, I'm sure that if you told the Acorn engineer that 30 years down the road people around Europe would be discussing the screw choice he'd be quite thrilled :D
