<br>
&gt; can anyone suggest a place to get a wide variety of metric hardware
(on<br>
&gt; the web, canada, or usa)?&nbsp; a friend of mine needs some nuts of
specific<br>
&gt; sizes/thread pitch, and can't find a place to buy them
(mcmaster-carr<br>
&gt; doesn't have the size he needs).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; thanks in advance...<br>
