Cool,

I am thinking to place a similar order. Where did you buy them? I am wondering if I can just buy these screws at a hardware store for a better price.

I have been doing to google searches but it seems the best place is via hobby type stores. Unless I want to buy 100 tons of screws through alibaba. :mrgreen:

I bought from fastenal. some people recommend mcmaster carr or bolt depot. Check out the business section too. budhatrain is looking to make a 4-40 screw order. I based my order sort of off his setup.
