I was not looking forward to sourcing hardware for the frames I was designing thinking I'd have to wait for slow boats from China or pay high prices for small quantities assuming I could even find them here in the U.S.

You need to put just a little time navigating their menu, but it is as intuitive as it can be given the huge variety of hardware they keep in stock.  Not only was I able to find exactly what I needed at what at least felt like bulk pricing, it freeging arrives the next day with normal shipping!!!

I'd caveat the one thing they did not carry was knurled aluminum standoffs but that is more hobbyist oriented I think.

Yup, love McMaster Carr, can always find what I need.

I’ve  used them for 316th SS hardware on municipal wastewater plants. They have some of the lowest prices even with shipping figured in. They are a reputable company and have ordered many times from them without a problem. They are in GA.
Their website is laid out kinda spread sheet like. A lot of industries use this because there is just so much stuff. You can always call them.

Handful of M2 screws and press nuts already arrived via UPS next day all the way to California. I ordered yesterday. Shipping was only $7 lol wow. Thank goodness getFPV or RDQ shipping wasn't this good I'd seriously be homeless lol.

They get my vote for the Insert McMaster-Carr Component feature in Fusion 360 (even though I wouldn't be ordering from them on a different continent).

Yeah their crazy fast even with heavy stuff.

They're like 20 min from me and I never thought to use them...I wonder if they offer pickup?

I believe you can order and pickup outside. They aren’t doing counter sales cause of the Covid.
