Does anyone know where I can source the male screw ends for making swing tips? I've tried googling it but I'm not sure I'm using the correct search terms. :Confused:
Thanks for any help.

You're welcome, Pinhead. I use Hopkins and Holloway a lot. Only trouble is their postage charge is ridiculous.

I use them too but usually wait until I need a reasonable amount of stuff, to make the postage worthwhile

Done that! Drives me nuts, and I have told them, but by the same token I can understand that it costs time and therefore money to service the little orders.
