Rockler Woodworking and Hardware
Rockler Woodworking and Hardware, formerly and fondly known as "The Woodworker's Store", is the undisputed leader in mail order hardware and woodworking supplies. If you don't get this cool catalogue already... YOU SHOULD! You just won't believe your eyes!! You will really enjoy every page!
HardwareSource.com
HARDWARE SOURCE.com claims to be the "most complete source of hinges", and after looking over their catalog I have to agree! Of course, they do sell the "bread and butter" butt hinges and cabinet hinges, but their inventory goes way beyond that to specialty items such as chest and box hinges, furniture hinges, self-closing and pivot door hinges. About the only thing that was missing from their catalog was so-called "Euro" hinges... mortised hinges that have become increasingly common in kitchen and bathroom cabinets.
Home Ideas
Home Ideas features a broad range of helpers for do-it-yourselfers! First, they are a convenient source of manufacturer's brochures for home repair and improvement products. Second, they have a page of applets to help you to calculate the right amount of wallpaper, tile, paints, and more. With home repair information, books, links, and access to a home repair forum, Home Ideas is a worthwhile on-line stop.
