Where to get the nice Accessory to need for the stuff I print to get together?

Hi
I looking for a good Source maybe a Company who produce the stuff in Europe who make small Screws, Nuts, that stuff that get heat pressed into the Plastic and allow me to screw a screw into,...? I some like the Size of the Screw and Nuts who are get use in the Printer build. The Size is a good combination of Size and Usability. Well like Rods, Bars and other what we need to make the stuff working.

Thanks!

If I understand correctly, you're looking for parts that are many times used in combination with 3D printing. Some of them would be:
* Allen key M3-M5 bolts of shorter lengths (6-8-10-12-16-...mm) & hex nuts
* Insert nuts M3-M5 (of better quality)
* T-Nuts M5 in various shapes
* Alu-extrusions (2020, 3030, 2040,...)
* Corner brackets for Alu-extrusions
* Small bearings & pulleys, linear bearings
* etc. etc.
-of course it's important that stuff is actually on stock most of the time.

I've been searching a lot and only found one in Europe (in Poland). They have acceptable prices and delivery time, however shipping is very expensive -so I use it only in emergency.
Other stores that I know of, only have certain parts range (only bolts and hex nuts, or only Alu-extrusion and T-Nuts, etc.). So I settled for 3-4 web stores in Europe that I buy from.
Just noticed you say "...maybe a Company who produce the stuff in Europe". I think most european web shops sell stuff imported from China.

I realize my post probably isn't of much help .. take it as a comment 😉

RE:

I'm not sure what the current status is getting Amazon products delivered to Europe, but I know that as of a few years ago there were work-arounds to get Amazon items shipped or forwarded to Europe.

Amazon has an overwhelming selection of small metric fasteners and various hardware used for all kinds of 'maker' stuff.

Here in the States, the fastener standard is SAE, and even the most complete hardware stores and auto supply stores carry very little, if any, in the way of smaller (~ m1.6 - m5) metric fasteners.

I've always ordered them from Amazon.

There are also a few fastener specialty firms selling on Ebay as well.

I happen to be happy with Amazon.

As far as spam, if you're talking about those 'suggestions' they send you, you can easily opt out of that.

I bought only those parts, which are normaly part of the MK3 assembly. So M3 nuts and bolts. For these many producers are available, but I wanted to have the stainless steel ones as original.  And for that the shops were limited.

Take a look in here: https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/ceske-forum-obecna-diskuze-oznameni-a-novinky/nahradni-m3-matky/#post-538621

Not bad shop, but the language may be a bit challenge for you. Unless you master the language of your neighbours 🙂
