The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk nuts, bolts, washers and screws oh my!

I found a nut-n-bolt place here in Elko,that will sell me singles or just a few at a time;all it takes is a little shopping around. You might check with mechanics or fabricators and ask where they buy their hardware. Granted,it's hard to make yourself buy 200 of something when you only need a dozen,but hey-it won't spoil,and if you have it on the shelf already,you'll always end up using it on a project later.I've only regretted buying a box of something a couple of times,like when I realized after the purchase I didn't have enough money to buy gas for the last days before payday. Besides,I just feel better using new hardware for assembling things when I can-easier to work with,stronger,cleaner,safer.
On low stress things,I still clean up and use original hardware often,mainly because these days I generally have more time than money.
