NUTS and BOLTS
Can anyone suggest a good online source for nuts and bolts, preferable without large quantities.
Ebay seems to be very expensive.

find a local little place for fastners. not only are they helpful, they sell ones and twos, are cheap and charge no p&p.
I managed to get a very unusual imperial size, as a stainless nyloc - just off the shelf! 
If they are close you can even make it on your lunch break if you work full time and thats why you are looking online.
Where abouts are you in the country? A post on here will have everyone answering on your nearest stockist.

I would also recommend finding a local supplier. I was always popping in mine for little bits I kept on forgetting. If i had bought it all online it
would have cost me a fortune in postage.
As for bulk stuff, see if there is a screwfix trade counter near you. They are open 7 days a week and 8 on weekdays. Also very handy for other bits
and pieces you forgot to order.

I'll second Namrick but postage can mount up. Then again I would probably spend a couple of tokens driving to a supplier anyway.

I tend to go for Ebay for small amounts but Namrick for big(ish) orders. I must say that Namrick are very good at getting orders out quickly. Arriving
after 2 days is usual (1 day on occasion!!)..
