ctc77965o Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 One of the beauties of traditional hardware shops out here in Asia is that you grab all the nuts/bolts/washers you want and just bung 'em in newspaper all together & pay by weight.... i guess it won't last, it'll soon be little sachets of seven washers priced like they were hand-crafted.
