A Shopping Trip
#6
The other day, while finishing up a project..was having a hard time finding the right hardware....was getting a bit too low...so..
A trip to the Hobby Lobby Store up in Lima, OH. was made...$22 and change later...hauled a bag of "goodies" back home...
Inventory?
Always in need of handles..
   
Different types of wooden knobs..
   
Or...
   
Both styles need a tenon stuck in them...<1/4" dowels work...

Pegs, anyone?
   
Fancy Brass corners?
   
Wrap the entire corner, or..
   
Just a Heart....

Hinges were about out in the shop, so..plain or fancy?
   
Or special ones?
   

Latches?  The kind that rotates?
   
Or the kind with a flip tab..
   
Like the last one I used for the Resaw Box Project....

That should do for a while...you think?

At the rate you build boxes, that inventory won't last long.

Hobby Lobby is a store that I will not patronize under any circumstances.

While in Lowes the other day..I picked a Plastic Storage Box to hold all the Hardware in...instead of just a pile of small baggies....

I also picked a Tap & Drill bit set....1/4" x 20

Then down their Hardware Aisle, and picked up a pair of Thumbscrews to match the tap..

And a few cheap Paint brushes....
