Most jewelry stores... LOL. Not as cheap or common as it once was. You can get bronze fittings from any number of catalogs. (Don't look for it in a blister pack at WasteMarine, though!) Check out ABI (WB advertiser). They have a huge line of decent fittings, though many are of stainless rather than bronze. Same for Jamestown Distributors and Hamilton Marine. Wilcox Crittenden probably still has their bronze fittings available, and Perko still offered a few last I checked. Jamestown or Hamilton can order most any of it for you if it isn't in their catalog. There are a few other outfits that have more esoteric bronze fittings. Davey and Co., London, UK, is the mother lode. There's another outfit ("Classic boat supply" or some such) in UK that also sells Davey's traditional fittings.

Thank's Bob- the itty bitty cleats are destine for the frames of the skiff for crab lines and a small fishing anchor which is used more to check drift rather than hold bottom. Basically I'm just jazzing up the inside for my son's amusement. Hamilton's has 2 1/2" cleats but they are not quite the style I'm looking for, but will suffice. Thanks for the input!

Hate to say this given the West Marine thread currently flaming but (ouch) was in their store today and saw blister packed Bronze cleats in 2 1/2 in. size. Not bad price either. HOWEVER 1/4 in. ACCO chain 1.00 ft in Defender they charged me 1.79. They get it one way or the other.
