Knurled Thumb Screws?

[Mr. Finicky Timbers]

Does anybody know where I could a could of these? I'm not a big fan of the hex head nuts on several of my mounts and much prefer the style on carry handles. The problem is I just can't locate any any!

If you can't find it there, it does not exist.

Another is KBS tools. There is a shop in Vancouver somewhere.

As a recovering tool junkie, I am not allowed to visit

I am looking for the same thing but for much lower prices. At around $5 to 10 each from these tool stores, there has got to be some cheap off shore stuff offered somewhere.

Either that or I will have to strip them off all the stuff around the house.

I thought McMaster didn't ship to Canada.

I just make them when I need them.
Got a friend with a lathe?

I thought McMaster didn't ship to Canada.

That's news to me. We order stuff from them all the time.

Yes McMaster ships to Canada.

almost everything in their book they ship over night.

Fastenal also sells them.

That's news to me. We order stuff from them all the time.

I meant to individuals that aren't grandfathered.

Edit: An example below:

Dear ###x,

Thank you for your order.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing complexity of United States export regulations,
McMaster-Carr can only process orders from a few long-established customers in Canada.
We sincerely regret any inconvenience this causes you.

Thank you,

The only issue with Mcmaster, is that on some parts such as fasteners, some but not all are subject to huge anti dumping type trade tarriffs, these can be a few hundred percent surcharge. You can always ask before ordering. If its something odd or speciality type though it should be fine. I get my stuff next day all the time.

As for the knurled knobs, arent you worried about them backing off instead of allen key heads?
