Where do you all get hardware for your projects? I sure ain't going to
Lowe's for stuff like that, and while I enjoy the selection that McFeeley's offers, I'm underwhelmed by the quality at times. Where else can you get corner braces, decorative hinges, brass face plates, stuff that isn't manufactured by an oppressed Vietnamese. |

Well that was just what I was looking for. Thanks. At least now my designs won't all resemble post-modernist constructions. |

As someone else noted, Lee Valley and similar are good for really, really good stuff. For the more ordinary kinds of things but good, woodworkershardware.com is my choice for online distributor. -- |
