Glad you made it out. Be safe on your travels and keep an eye on the forum for the next run you can get to.
Merry Christmas

Anyone know a good local place to buy bulk hardware?

[pmadrid13]

Depends on what you are looking for.

I go to Murphys Surplus Warehouse in El Cajon.

Ababa bolt can get just about anything but I find that they don't have small hardware, the same goes for Fastenal. Its been a while since I been at Marshals but its cool since you can go down the aisles and check out the hardware. Murphys is limited, being a surplus warehouse but the selection is great for small hardware, specially small washers and the prices are the best.

[myth619]

Murphys also doesn't have anything labeled so it makes it really hard to find what you're looking for. Not a good selection if any of metric hardware either..

[Bansh88]

I heard Murphys is similar to .....Electrical Supply just down the street. Cant recall the exact name. Just bins and bins of "stuff".

the 2 times I went to Ababa, I handed a screw to the guy, he came back with them. Both were axial screws. First time, I just needed 2. he gave them to me free of charge. 2nd time, I just needed a couple. Had to buy a whole bag of 50. Cost $6. Big woop

You are right, "bins and bins of stuff"

Ababa has always been cool, if they have an open box or bag they will give you a few pieces for free
