Received a McMaster catalog in the mail

Wow, did you spend a bunch or did they lower their standards? I was
feeling pretty
special until I read this post.


I spent some money over the last, mostly on trinkets, like crimped
terminals, screws etc, year due to this CNC project, but nothing truly
major.

Still you have to admit, it feels good recieving the honor of being
worthy of that
catalog.


Maybe they lowered their standards for us! ;-)

Times when I'm working on a project and place several small orders, seems
they send me a catalog. Maybe it's triggered by quantity of orders placed
and not dollars spent.

I'm sure you're right. I seldom order more than two items at a time
and place probably 20-30 orders a year. They are my hardware store. I
get a catalog every year. My next one goes for sale on eBay if they
are really worth $40.
