They don't stock them here in Rocky or Port Kennedy Bunnings here in WA , yes they do sell a few , a very few small machine screw SAE sizes but only up to the 10/8 gauge sizes , hardly used any more ' .

Seems the eastern state Bunnings gets a better supply .

Oh well , least I ain't in Darwin anymore ,, its way worse up there '

Brian.

ps , I did get a new bubble for my spirit level in Bunnings Darwin ......

The quality of sales advice does vary considerably. At my local store I have my preferred 'victim' if I need advice. Older chap, possibly a tradie who has got off the tools, seems to know everything and would certainly know SAE. You're right though about some of the casuals - wouldn't know left-handed screwdrivers from striped paint.
