Yeah, except in Champaign-Urbana, (that's every hardware including
Farm `n Fleet, Lowes and Menards...) NO one had the specific
size I needed nor did they have nylocs rated the same strength. Of
course, if you want to buy in lots of more than 100 per item there's
always Fastenall.

I prefer either Pegasus Racing Supply or Racer's Wholesale (Pegasus
got the stuff to me within 24 hours just recently...). What they sell
is Aircraft Grade. Once that's properly tightened nothing short of a
direct hit during a zeppelin raid will move it.
