McMaster may very well be where he gets his parts LOL. Another good resource anyway, eliminates sorting through a bunch of unneeded sizes.

I also buy in bulk from McMaster. If I needed smaller quantities though, this would be great...not everyone needs 100 M3 nuts at a time. I would like to see him offer stainless though as well.

He is also ~100 miles from me, so shipping should be a day or so.

Tonys also has screw kits to replace every screw on a vehicle. Tonys is great!

Still trying to find the button head, hex M3 tapping screw. The only thing I come up with is Axial package of them. Not that I mind buying them there but they are out of stock on the places I checked. I will keep Tony in mind when I stock up. Might be better to buy the whole truck kit in the end.

I just came to this board looking for a thread on screws/bolts and saw this on the first page so I have to ask, does anyone have a source for fully threaded 30 or 35 mm m3 socket heads? I managed to shear a 35 mm bolt that was on an RC4WD chassis and I actually need something that is fully threaded. McMaster only has partially threaded, and I just checked on Tony's Screws and only partially threaded ones are listed on that site as well. I found some at hobbyking.com and some Thunder Power labeled ones at Tower Hobbies, but it would be nice if there are fully threaded ones that pass some sort of QA standard (DIN or ISO?) unlike the cheap pieces of crap RC4WD seems to have used on my chassis. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best bet is gonna be to Email Tony at Tonys Screws. He responds to emails in a reasonaable time frame. While you wait for his response check Fastenal.com
