Forget about Home Depot, which will have only the most common stuff, in
little bags, only a few of each, at a relatively high cost. What you
want
is probably what I bought from MSC ( www.mscdirect.com ) stainless steel
8-32 threaded spacers or stand offs, which you can see discussed at
http://users.ticnet.com/mikefirth/MFGL.htm#knobs (a bit slow to load)
These
are slightly larger (1/4th inch) than the ones in the kit (3/16") but look
okay [ several lengths, 67721647 as below, go to the page for other
sizes.1/4 In. O.D. Round Threaded Standoffs Type: Round Threaded Standoffs
Body Length: 3/4 Thread Size: 8-32 Material: Stainless Steel
Finish/Coating:
Bright $1.50

Does anyone have a source for the internally threaded inserts that
go
into drawer pulls and knobs?
I could get the refill kit, but $36.00 for 12 seems a bit pricey.
Thanks in advance.

If you live in or near a big city, try finding a McMaster-Carr
warehouse.
They are like a combination of WWGrainger and HomeDepot. They have
almost
any little fastener and the like....

oooooh! Thank you! They are the mother lode! Their webpage is very
helpful -- nice illustrations so now I can figure out what to call the
little thingamabob BEFORE I go to Home Depot.....
