Seriously though, just buy shorter saddles, they’re not difficult to find once you know what diameter and height you want.
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
1/4" is the smallest grub screw height available - assuming yours are imperial - https://www.allparts.uk.com/collections/saddle-bridge-height-screws - loads of options on here
I got sizes of 4-40 5/16" and 4-40 1/4".
For MIM:
M3 x 8mm

I couldn't see why it would work until it was explained to me. My guitar needed that plus some other bits tweaking so it made sense to get it all done in one go.
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
If you decide to buy shorter grub screws, take the opportunity to get stainless steel ones so they won't rust up.
