This ha conic head, but flat head might be even better

This is brass, I'd prefer steel/nickel

not 100% sure this is what you were looking for, but chances are they'd have it, and they are all over Europe as far as I know..

Are there somewhere screw posts with 3 mm stem diameter? 5 mm seems to be a standard, especially for books, menu plans in restaurants, color guides, etc. They are available in all colours and lengths everywhere. But 3 mm?

These guys in England have got a metric ass ton of bolt varieties:

Shipping is costly, unless you hit £40, but I need to place an order anyway so we could do a mini GB, if you can find what you're after.

I can find 3mm brass sex bolts, but I don't like them yellow on a silver plate

where the hell the Koreans find them?!

thanks Muir, but they don't seem to have them (unless I'm totally blind)

Search for "Hülsenmutter" or "T-Hülse".

You could also get 3mm round stock, drill it 1.6mm, do the M2 thread yourself and use screws from both sides. Not an option if you need many and don't have a lathe.

What do you need it for? I didn't see the original thread. Bolt mod?

Thanks lowpoly. I need them for custom keyboards. To hold the layers together without having to thread the case

In sweden:
http://www.sifvert-skruv.se/sv/katalog/

That's the catalogue page, if you want to have a look click "distanser". I've heard that this guy can get you any screw that you want. I haven't used him myself but my colleague that is a furniture maker says hes the best.
Don't know if he has international shipping.
