Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: McMaster exposed

They never responded to my emails and the CD they sent was scratched!

Maybe I've just had *really* bad luck with them to this point. Their prices
seem exorbitant BUT they do have some very odd and unusual things. From what
I hear, they'll have it to me in just a day or two, if I'm willing to pay
for it.

Grainger is outlandish too but at least I can walk in there, get what I
need, walk out and pay for it when the statement comes, when I've got more
time. $27 for a 5/8-11 tap did REALLY hurt though....
