Re: WANTED: discount hardware sources

Yeesh. My old McMaster-Carr ((310) 692-5911) catalog says a box of 100
5/8-11 plain steel finished full nuts is $9.47. Shipping will add to
that, of course. Won't your hardware store sell you a box at a time?

Use the yellow pages. There's got to be a decent sized fastener
supplier in Bloomington that will sell you  boxes of 100 over the
counter. Mailorder will eat up the discount in shipping.
