Have you tried 'Classic Fasteners' in South Australia ..very easy to find via a google search... they do a good range of BSF bolts etc in various sizes - and BA screws too .

PS for those interested . The No. 11 set (Aust.): although externally it resembles its British counterpart to some degree , it is a totally different set in terms of internal components and it was a poor radio in many respects. The Aust. made version is relatively common , the British set is rare as hens teeth , seemingly, most of them being lost during the BEF retreat . A very few British 11 sets have turned up here , maybe scavenged from the M.E. I'm lucky to own a good example of one.
For the pedants out there , seeing a 11 set Aust. in the UK, mounted in a vehicle, is not historically correct . Other locally made sets such as the 101, 109 and FS6 did see overseas use as the archives have recorded and shown us.
