TheWalrus Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 At the Nat's I saw packaged nuts, bolts, washers, and washer/stud combinations. I thought they were really expensive for the quantities. These items were really tiny and appear ideal for my applications. I believe the thingies were on the order of perhaps 1 - 2 milimeters. Can anyone point me to sources for these? Dummy parts are o.k. as they will not be functional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayMesawitz Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 (edited) There is an ebay seller - rbmotion - that has very tiny items like you describe. Although I just did a quick search... he has nothing posted at the moment. He usually has stuff up 24-7, He may still be recovering from the nats for all I know. His stuff is worth a good look. On ebay use the advanced search to search by SellerID. Here is his web site too R&B Motion Edited August 11, 2010 by JayMesawitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is always very prompt and doesn't charge a ton for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montgomery Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 You might wish to check with you LHS and ask about Grandt Line products. They are made for model trains and include such items as you describe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order direct from Grandt Line Products: http://www.grandtline.com/index.html Most of the nuts, bolts, washers, etc are listed under "Augmentables" on the home page.

I use GrandtLine in my models. Some model shops that carry a lot of RR stuff usually carry that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are great for adding that extra detail, especially for scratchbuilt items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainAhab Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) Try this place, the dummy ones are cheaper and would be my choice. Unless your re-riveting a Panhard AC they go a long way (25 to 100 per package). http://www.scalehardware.com/ Cheers, Michael Edited February 5, 2011 by CaptainAhab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
