Thread: Source for pins and washers

Hi all - I just got an old WHMorley off ebay - prtty good shape, but there is some rust on the tail, in the jimps and in the pivot.

I was thinking maybe take it apart for polishing / cleaning....

Where do I find pins and washers to re-assemble it after???

thanks

Barry

Microfasteners is a good source

Check out this thread by gssixguns: Nuts and Bolts and Washers oh my From Microfasteners...

It tells you everything you'll need to order from Microfasteners.

Good luck!

microfasteners does not sell pin stock as far as I know. I buy my pin stock from www.knifemaking.com

Of all the places, I found pin stock at Hobby Lobby - if you happen to have one in your home town.

If you have a blick art supply, they carry pin stock.

I was going to post the same info! Thanks!

Some hardware stores carry 1/16 brass rod. Inexpensive, and no postage and waiting for delivery. Try any Ace Hardware. Nickle Silver rod will probably have to come from a knifemakers supply house. I use Janz.

Janz prices are ok until you go to checkout and fint that its going to cost you $10 in shipping for $6 in pins! are they NUTS! I don't care where you live in the U.S., for two packages of pins, it shouldn't cost more than $2 - $3 at best! They are smoken' something over there. Looking for a better source.
