I received my press yesterday. Its the first 3D printer I have owned, though I have used my friends makerbot. The set screw that holds the extruder gear to the drive shaft is missing on my printer, allowing gear to rotate freely on the shaft. I have contacted solidoodle about this, but I just want to know the size of the screw so I can replace it myself, rather than waiting for them. Does anyone know what size/type of set screw this is?

Thanks,

Torque
