Topic: Next Stupid Question.... Am I Missing Some Set Screws?

From the pics below, should there be set screws in these holes (it's my Y-Axis Stepper)? There are 3 threaded holes with no set screws in there.

Thanks. What about the one behind that (the rear lower shaft)? Should there be one in that?

Us a flash light and look in the hole bet the is on too. You will need a hex head eventually so you can buy one and poke it in there.

I've already got one. I'll try that as soon as my current print either fails or finishes! wink
