Thank You Scott and Tanya. Well, I'd never! I'd just call up, then come down to Burbank. I cannot see taking the chance on any off-brand PCB's for my mount. No Thanks. Besides, I wouldn't get to visit

Re: Wrench for electronics bracket
Oops, I misunderstood which screws you were referring to. I thought you meant the ones holding the gemini case to the ear brackets. You can still try the torx and flat head screw driver options, but

Re: Wrench for electronics bracket
Thanks for the response. I re-tried 3/16"; it is close but just doesn't seat into the socket.? I have a set of Harbor Freight SAE and metric wrenches. 3/16 wrench - a bit too big 5/32 - too small 5mm

Mine requires a 3/16 Allen wrench for the Gemini-2 brackets.? Perhaps a photo would help clarify how it appears.

Wrench for electronics bracket
Hello, Hope I'm not being too stupid here, but I cannot find a hex wrench to fit the screws which attach the electronics bracket (what holds the Gemini) to the HD tripod. I got my mount about 18
