Has anyone here checked Grant MacLaren's BPA web site notes lately? There's afellow there who says he has found a source of new surplus AN 130 turnbuckles for $6.00 a pop. Now, I haven't yet started to shop for hardware, but its easyto see that these are about half of what AS&S and Wicks are asking for the sameassembly. I know that others here have suggested places like Dillsburg, Spencer, and B&B, but can I expect to find a price this low? Can I get lower than $6.00 by scrounging?--Peter________________________________________________________________________________
