Where to buy small stuff?
« on: December 21, 2013, 05:40:09 PM »
Friend of mine is stymied.  Wants to build a little rolly thingy like them damn kiddy carts you see at the SSSS.  No speed, just static - not life or death.  Tabs, bushings etc are needed.  Here is the rub:  3/4" frame diameter.  He is not into forums, else I would tell him to post up. 


So, I just say "Jason......"  He wants to do it himself.  Whatever.....


So the list? 


Something like this in 1/2". http://www.pacificcustoms.com/mount100.html Looking for 12 in the 1/2" & 2 in 1". Then tabs. About 36 that are cut to weld on 3/4" chassis.



Just point me in the right direction please - he can shop from there, but having never looked, I have no idea where to point him.

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

I have a ton of stuff left from previous builds.   Tell him to pm me and I''ll bag them up and send them out.
