R/c hardware.

[JERRY2KONE]

I just wanted to take a minute to share my experiences with R/C hardware over the last few years. When I started out with R/C around Feb/2006 I picked up some MegaTech screws cheaply on T/H and thought they were just a little bit better then the stock phillips head screws you get with alot of stock R/C vehicles. Then I tried Tonyscrews, HexHead screws, and even titanium screws. All of them have their own pros and cons, but I always lean towards the strongest hardware at the best prices available.

Last year Lito aka "Geroge16" shared his stash supplier "BoltDepot.com" and I have to say for the money they are the best supplier of small high grade good quality hardware that I have found. Every screw is clean, accurate, and bur free. I was just about to order another lot from them and thought I would share how great these screws are. You can buy everything in 100 piece lots for a great price, and I always go for the Grade 12.9 screws, because they are the toughtest available. I think I now have about $300 to $400 worth of these screws and I love the idea of having whatever I need at my fingertips whenever I need it. I found some very cool compartimental type cases for flat head, and one for socket head, so it is easy to keep everything neet & organized. And best of all my kids are learning how to do things the right way using the best hardware.

Anyway thanks Lito for turning us on to one of the best hardware suppliers in the business. Just in case anyone is searching for a good bearing supplier I also get stainless steel shielded bearings from VXB bearings for very reasonable prices. Check them out & good luck with your R/C hardware shopping.
