Miniature nuts. bolts & rivets etc
Does anyone know of a website/shop that sells the really small hex bolts similar to the ones that Sakatsu are now producing. When I say small I mean no more than 1mm head diameter. I distinctly remember seeing not too long ago a company selling a mixed bag of 200 of these little beauties on ebay but I cannot find them anymore and I cant remember who the seller was either which is all the more frustrating - they went for alot less in comparison to what Sakatsu are charging for their (10 packs) too!
any advice would be appreciated! many thanks Sean _______________________________ http://www.scalereproductions.co.uk _______________________________ |

I am interested also because Sakatsu is very expensive.
Wish I knew, sorry. |

They don't have website, but you can browse its catalogue. http://public.fotki.com/retabeth/rb_motion_catalog/ I've seen the company selling stuff on eBay on an irregular basis, so if you wait, I think you'll have another chance. |

I've used these guys before, back when they were known as Galtran, excellent product and service. Looks like they are making/selling the same stuff, hopefully the service is still as good. |

I can highly recommend http://scalehardware.com also. Just received my order from them in just under a week ( to Tasmania, Australa). Good quality hex heads and bolts

Re: Miniature nuts. bolts & rivets etc
thanks guys, unbelievably helpful as always. scalehardware seems like a good option and also RBmotion, and yes, I think that was the seller on ebay that I saw. One of these companies is going to get big ole order flying its way.
thanks again Sean _______________________________ http://www.scalereproductions.co.uk _______________________________ |

Re: Miniature nuts. bolts & rivets etc
Robert at RB motion is a pleasure to deal with. The stuff he lists on e-bay are items that people did not purchase. As all of his stuff is special made to order, he keeps a very limited stock on hand. Thats why is auctions are irregular
