Exclamation Knobs and stuff

Hey guys. Was looking for some knobs/bolts for my Losmandy G11 instead of having to lug around the allen-keys, when I stumbled upon this site:
http://www.dana-ridge.com.au/content/elesa.asp
Just thought maybe someone could find this useful. I havent yet ordered from them so cant comment anymore on service etc.

Cheers.

Thanks for that Brent. I have bookmarked the site as I know it will come in handy one day. And it’s in Brisbane too!

Cheers

There has got to be somewhere that those neat techno bits and pieces can be used

I've dealt with these guys a few times. Generally they only sell items in bulk lots. Unless they have an open box/bag. Saying this though, I have managed to get most of the things I've needed.

Sometimes they don't seem too keen to deal with the public and small orders, but don't give up, they should have something to suit.

I found it better to go into there warehouse near the gateway bridge and deal one on one rather than over the phone. That way you can see what is available is small lots.

They have some very cool gear!

Hi

you could try ADM in the US. http://www.admaccessories.com/
I ordered a set of bolts from Anthony to replace the allen screws on my CGE mount. They make a huge difference in the time it takes to set up the mount and they are very well made.

Another great place in Brisbane is Small Parts & Bearings at:

http://www.smallparts.com.au/catalogue/

where you can buy one off’s and small quantities. It is based at Mansfield, Queensland, Australia, 4122 and you can order on line. I have only used them 2 or 3 times and in those interactions, found them to be very good.

Cheers

Dennis
