Hi Don,
Thanks for the idea. I've actually thought about taking a screw from another leg, but was worried about supporting the piano.  Unfortunately I don't have a saw horse to put under the key bed for support just in case it was needed.  I never want to take chances.  Tracing the screw may be a challenge.  Taking it to a hardware store might be possible.  I live right down the street from one, the kind you mentioned except no old guy smoking out back lol  You mentioned leather in a screw hole. I've also heard of using copper winding from a bass string in a stripped hole. Have you heard of that technique?  What type of leather should I buy?  Are we talking about the buck skin that comes in that sheet that one can cut in strips?  
Thanks again Don.
