Hetrick <[log in to unmask]> ------------------ Hi, folks - I was just reading the sagas (sagae?) of fixing map drawers and two things came to mind: 1. Somebody (not me on account of I'm a computer dudette now) ought to collect everything together, including both the dos and donts, into a web page and put it on a quite accessible site. 2. If you come up totally empty on where to find the bolts, lock washers, and nuts of the right size(s), I came on an outstanding REAL hardware store today in Pasadena when I was looking for some brass screws of a very tiny metric size (they had a suitable supply for all but one of the sizes, but NO place else that I looked had any at all and the one missing size is on order). They are Berg Hardware at the corner of Villa and Altadena (495 North Altadena Drive, Pasadena, CA 91107-2538 626.793.3018 and 626.793.6161. I talked to one guy there (who turns out to live in my apartment complex) and he says they will do mail orders. Good luck. virginia -- \ / Virginia R.
