Seriously.....call Concord True Value Hardware in Concord, NH
603-228-2050.....they carry the largest supply of grade 8, 10, 12
Hardware in steel and stainless in the area.......it's because of (us)
and the race track......my boys work there 3-8 on Fridays and 8-5 on
Saturdays and really know their hardware.......ask for Raymond or
Stephen. During the week, ask for Don (the manager)......tell them I
sent you.......we also could buy stuff for you and ship to you....
