Here is a minor listing of some of the many source outlets for industrial accessories, fasteners, materials and tooling that may be needed around your home "machine shop"!

I should point out that some of these are monster-big firms with multi-thousand page catalogs, that are geared to serving business and industry, so may not be receptive to small orders by home hobbyists who do not have an account set-up with them. But perusing the online catalogs of even some of these can be educational and even helpful in letting you see what is actually out there, thus helping to locating something you want or need and perhaps making it possible to find it elsewhere so that you can make the purchase.

Here are a few online sources:
