I am talking to some folks who make small cabinets. They are a foot or two
tall. Also some small chests that are about 18" square. They have had
problems finding a good source of solid brass hardware. They only need a
few at a time. Nothing big time. Hinges, latches, catches, knobs, etc
Any ideas? There is a Rockler and Woodcraft locally, so I will look there.
They have to work on small cabinets and be sturdy. No junk. The price
really won't matter since they need to buy a few of them.
Thanks,
Lee

I really don't think that they will pay that much. I will pass it on. I
recall installing a set of these hinges long ago. They were very nice.

LM:
I haven't made a recent search but occasionally some
surprising
things, some intricate things, surface on www.etsy.com .
Prices vary but deals do happen.

I recently got catches from Gerstner & Sons.

These catches are good enough for $700+ tool chests and they look great
compared to others I ordered (and haven't used).

Try Horton Brass, Lee Valley, and WW Hardware for more possibles.
All googlable.
