Thank you! There are a few there that are new to me. EDIT: Will check my bookmarks at home and see if I can contribute anything...
McMasterCarr for all kinds of hardware, drill bits, reams, taps and other odd stuff. They deliver really quick.

For less than the cost of the abrasives to cut the stuff, you can buy just about any bracket you need for your project.
