    Default Any Other Canadian Shavers Here Would Like To Find Micro-Fasteners and Brass Rod

    Hi folks, I live in Red Deer, Alberta and I was wondering if anyone knows if there is any place in Canada to purchase Micro-Fasteners, brass rod and greaseless compound? If not I will have to purchase from the States. With the Canadian dollar in the sewer it would be nice to get them here.
    Thank you in advance and Merry Christmas to everyone.

    When I bought microfasteners and greaseless, I ended up ordering from the States. Mind you, that was a few years ago now so the dollar was a whole lot stronger then. Perhaps a Canadian distributor can be found now?

    However, for brass rod, check out your local hobby store. They should have what you need.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    Thank you! I never thought of that. I have already placed an order with Micro Fasteners but I need some brass rod for peening. I will check out the local hobby shops.
    Kindly

    Ken's Gems in Calgary is a great sour for rod and many other little things.
