Needed for an old sewing machine. It's a listed thread, and I can probably
get a box of 100 from McMaster, but I only need one 3/8 long, binder or
cheese head screw. Any ideas?

Find a gunsmith. I think that's a common thread for mounting sights.

That's easy.... you're too dull witted to be capable of surprise. What
little synaptic ability you do possess is stretched to the limit with
life support. If you diverted power to the critical thought processors
you'd asphyxiate in a matter of minutes.

Try a hobby shop. Usually sold in pairs... maybe not any more.

Common thread in R/C. Try a hobby shop. May have to buy a few per, but
definitely not 100.
