I need a source for machine screws.
 
I dont build kits but I thought what better place to ask. I need some 3 and 4mm machine screw like what comes in hardware kits about 3/4" long with allen heads on them. Where is a good place to buy these I would like to stock up because I always need them? My hardware store doesnt have the allen heads. Thanks for any help.

A company for the hobby called micro fasteners is one place or another is RTL fasteners is another place they both have better prices for larger quanties than any hardware store or hobby shop does. RTL advertises on this site .

Just found horizon has a great selection of them. It always seems I need 3mm bolts for everything and never have them. Oh well if I always had what I needed I couldn't run like a kid to an ice cream truck whenever the mail runs lol.

The BEST. www.rtlfasteners.com. They have everything!! Bolts, nuts,screw, washers. I just bought their " builders assortment." (over 2000 bolts screws, washers) with the organizers for around $85.00. Go price that stuff at your local hardware. Good Luck

Something we did at my old club was to get a number of guys that were in need of hardware and place one big order and we split the shipping cost. A lot of guys only buy the servo screws so it was a good way to buy.

I third McMaster Carr. Much more than screws & bolts. Everything from a to z. I use them all the time, one stop shopping.
