Ken, you must have posted while I was composing, then I didn't see your post until now. I found the same thing you suggested after reading Jeff's note. Thanks! Mitchell, I tried McFeely's, and Grainger, and several other online companies with no luck, at least not in the 3/8" size. I found 1/4" for 3.85 a box of 50 and shipping was 3.69, but I wanted something bigger. It was a speaker builder site if anyone is interested . Also thought it strange that rock climbers use these things to make tools of their trade! Lots of searches went to climbing supply places.
At this time, McMaster-Carr definately has the best prices. As Ken said, 50 6 prong for 6.75, and I found the hex socket set screws there for 6.47 per 25. That makes the order under 20 bucks plus shipping.
Ken, why would they stop and do shipping on the phone if they won't do it by e-mail anymore? They need to put a shipping estimator on the website and be done with it!!
Now, do i need some more band clamps while I'm at it?......Jim.
Thanks for all the help! Jim.
