    I thought I would update

    I am placing an order with https://www.mcmaster.com/ They have a huge selection with actual documentation on what your getting. I am replacing what I lost except going with 316 Stainless Steel and some 410 SS in thread cutting. Picking up some 3/4" screws in #6 to #12 , a bunch of 1/4" by 3/4"bolts for the coroplast, along with some 5/16 and 3/8 to have on hand including nuts oversized washers and lock washers, along with Loctite 243. What was nice is finding stuff all in one place. Prices are OK and shipping is OK - not the best and not a ripoff. No sales gimmicks either.

    Yes I could probably find the stuff cheaper, but they have the documentation and carry other than 8-18 which is a bit soft in my mind. Now to replace the storage case, possibly even make a pull out drawer type I can permanently mount somewhere in the front bay.

      Update
      First order arrived - very sturdy box. Inside all the hardware was separate boxed and in a clearly labeled zip lock bags. Hardware is very good looking too. I am impressed.

        I placed a second order with McMaster last week, including the rubber EDPM grommets. Arrived in 3 days, Again everything appears to be well made. Mix of Taiwan and US sourcing. On thing I like is there web page has lots of detailed information and sorting so you can find what you need easily. Of course the proof will be when I put them to use. Ill update then
