Members kevinhopkins Posted November 15, 2009 Members Report Posted November 15, 2009 Hi... I don't mean to sound negative, but I just don't think you find them in this country, unless you're willing to buy a serious qty. Sorry! Grinding isn't all that hot, but I think it's your best option, unless someone knows something that I don't. (and my wife says there's no shortage of folks that qualify on that score! ) Kevin Quote

Members fuzzy Posted November 15, 2009 Members Report Posted November 15, 2009 Try here www.chicagoscrews.com/en/stainless-chicago-screws.aspx but the 1/8 are not blind Quote
esantoro Posted November 15, 2009 Report Posted November 15, 2009 I keep thinking that there's got to be some way to fashion a small pipe cutter to shorten screws and posts. A tool maker should be able to make one of these easily. I keep thinking that there's got to be some way to fashion a small pipe cutter to shorten screws and posts.
