Bring your glidecam to home depot and find a screw that fits, or tell glidecam and wait?

a 1/4" machine bolt is what fits into a standard tripod socket. I don't know shit about glidecams, never had one, so I can't say anything about the length.

went to ace hardware and they found the right screw for me. don't remember what size the screw was exactly.

just go to your local hardware shop and they will figure out what size/length screw you need.
