DOH! Sorreeee.....

;-0 )

Try looking through that publication by our hosts, WB Magazine -- lots of ads for hardware.

Has anyone else noticed that Davey's larger bronze tube jam-cleats have been selling on eBay for higher than retail? I purchased a hot-dipped galvanized mast band and a brass tube jam-cleat from Davey via R&W, and was very pleased with the quality.

Just a couple of corrections. Port Townsend Foundry's mailing/street address has changed. They have been unable to update their website for reasons I don't know, but the new address is:

Port Townsend Foundry
251 Otto St.
Port Townsend WA 98368

All other info is still correct. Also, PT Foundry has recently acquired many of Newfound Metal's patterns. If you're looking for a replacement Newfound part, start by call PTF.

I updated the list of vendors in the original post (note: ver 1.0 => ver 2.0) and incorporated the information provided in subsequent posts. Checked the web links etc. If anyone would care to write a brief desciption/summary of any of the businesses I will update the list and add the information.

"Maine Classics" was suggested and I Googled them with no results called then called the number and got a answering machine with no identification, just "leave a msg" ?

Thanks for all the info so far. A lot of good information in this list.
