    Not sure if this place has been mentioned in the past, But I have made an order and will post up my thoughts when it arrives, I find their prices on their own branded products very cheap, especially on their inserts and lathe tool holders..

    Default Harvey Tool - hard to find machine tooling and carbides.

    This is a great place with fantastic service especially nice for micro mill and boring and form tools.

    Default Sherline


    One very cool site is Sherline.com maker of the Sherline miniature CNC Lathe and Mill http://www.sherline.com/ Their prices are actually quite good and I can testify that the hardware is exceptionally well made. The ways are made from aluminum alloy and uses nylon gibs, however I have seen these stand up to enormous abuse in production environments (small part manufacturing). The accessories are exceptionally well priced for USA made.
    If you ever make it to SoCal, visit the Sherline factory in Vista and do stop into the affiliated Craftsmanship Museum its just phenomenal.

    Didn't know where else to put this.
    If this post doesn't belong here could we please move it to where it does belong so interested parties don't miss out.

    Hare & Forbes Machinery House

    Huge sale on everything

    19th thru 21 March 2015

    The few things I could afford were better than eBay prices.

    And actually had plenty of stock and plenty of people to help or to get me help. (in Melbourne)

    I'm returning tomorrow now that I've had a chance to price compare.

    The cool thing about it is that its online sales as well.

    I have been using a fair number of fasteners of late, found these guys to be the cheapest in Aus. https://www.totalfasteners.com.au/
    They are an arm of Blackwoods but so far the service, turn around time and price has been great.

    Yes, I've dealt with Boltons and found them to be very good, and I'm not in the USA.
    The worst that can happen is you will fail.
    But at least you tried.

    Default Torx insert screws

    Spotted these guys in my internet travels. I have no idea if their screws are any good but at those prices I'll try them. If you are a haggler you can even make an offer against a $1.52 asking price.

    Default Token Tools Recommendation

    I know Token Tools has been mentioned in previous posts but I would like to add to these comments.

    Recently I decided to buy a new Inverter AC/DC Tig welder because of a problem with the one I purchased four or five years ago. The age of my welder and the cost of a replacement card is why I decided to get a new one.

    I had read previous posts about Token Tools so rang them and talked to Pete who not only offered information about two of their welders also gave some advice about getting my defective welder fixed. I appreciated his advice not to buy a Token Tools welder over the phone then but think about it first.

    I did so and a few days later bought a Token Tools "210 ALUPULSE PRO DIGITAL ACDC GTAW INVERTER WELDER" which was delivered very quickly.

    I have used it on some Tig aluminium and also some steel with the stick function and all ok.

    After more use in the future I will do another forum post on its performance.

    ToolsBG, just google it. Quality European taps,dies and some other stuff. His name is Ivan form Bulgaria. Looks like he's got connections - organized for me few things not even listed on his site. Worth to contact him and ask nothing to loose, anyway.
    I'm just a happy customer, nothing else whatsoever.

    Cheers,

    Wes

    Bought a 10" cold saw blade from a popular au located ebay seller of new old stock equipment... The ad said it has 96 teeth, the one that turned up has about a million teeth...

    This is the second time I have bought from these sort of sellers and the second time the item they sent does not match the description..
    Gold, the colour of choice for the discerning person.

    At least it should be a smooth cut.
    Lucky that someone has the microscope to confirm that tooth count,might take a few days though.

    I will take a punt and say that was "C Tool" I also bought a cold saw blade from him, and guess what ?? Exactly the same thing..... Triple the teeth that was advertised..
    I ended up keeping it, just because it may come in handy, but I did get on my high horse, and the response was very expected.
    I probably won't buy from him again unless I absolutely have to. His prices are getting ridiculous lately as well/
