Here's ONE, MSC industrial supply: http://www1.mscdirect.com/cgi/nnsrhm

There are several other's such as McMaster-Carr and Granger for general industrial type of items.  And then a series of others as Carr-Lane and Jergens for jig & fixture types of tooling.

And, what I don't have (hint) are a series of suppliers of items for woodworking and such other specialized fields.

You don't say exactly what kind of woodworking supplies you are looking for but you probably should give

a look.

I didn't say, because it will take several sources to come up with all the things that we'll be looking for.

THANKS for the quick response!

Last time I dealt with MSC they wanted you to open an account,  they aren't real big on small orders and they didn't have black iron square head bolts and nuts.  But they have everything else you need and were good about getting it to you.  I have inthe past spent a lot of money with them.

Lately for hobby size orders I have been using Travers  http://www.travers.com

What I am looking for is somebody suppling black iron, square head facteners and wrougth iron furniture.  No zinc/cadium stuff.

McMaster-Carr has plain steel square nuts from #6 to 3/8".  Put "machine screw square nuts" in the search field and proceed from there.

McMaster also has square head bolts; put "square head bolts" in the search field.

Good luck on the wrought iron.  I doubt you will be able to find real wrought iron any more.  Most of the stuff sold as "wrought iron" is really mild steel.
