Any suggestions for a good assortment of 3DP hardware?

I'm looking for a decent all around assortment of hardware just to have on hand; screws, nuts, etc. This one seems to be decent but I'm not sure I's ever need all the M2 sizes.

So what are other folks getting?

Thank in advance!

So far, nothing more than the extras included in the kit. I would use that selection as a guide; it includes everything that the printer was/is built with.

You don't mention where you are. A couple of other sources in the US are:
McMaster-Carr Supply Company
Bolt Depot

I got these off a list on the RepRap Wiki--I have not used either personally.

That's "MISTER Old Fart" to you!

Thanks Mr. Old fart 😆

Yeah, I've use McMaster Carr before and know they pretty much have everything. I suppose you could say I'm looking for the easy way out to find a general kit of common parts for these printers. MK3 in particular. If nothing specific is mentioned I'll probably grab one of these off Amazon and finish it off with misc parts from somewhere like MMC.

As for the location, thought I had set that but obviously not. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
