I have a 12"(?) Peugeot that's missing the nut. I've replaced it with a metric brass wingnut, but it does not hold its setting so I don't really use it. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement nut?

I also have a Dansk Quistgaard with a Peugeot mechanism that I found at a community rummage sale. It has a very nice mechanism, but it's non-adjustable and the capacity is for people who are afraid of pepper.

Frankly, for everyday use, I have no issue with the Ikea mill that I got in 2008--a Peugeot knockoff with the same ceramic mechanism as the 365+ IHÄRDIG. It holds its setting extremely well, fills easily, doesn't need to be reset after filling, and has good capacity.

Try using a nyloc nut instead. You will need a wrench to adjust it, but it won't work loose.
