Solar botics
July 4, 2014
It's another Friday and we are back with the product that makes sense - it is metric! It is not measured in twips, poppyseeds, barleycorns, yards, furlongs, or any of this funny stuff. It's your good old straightforward decimals.

Metric Pan-head 2.5mm dia x 8mm long Bolt - 25 Pack $6.00 Metric M2.5 x 8MM pan-head bolt, in packs of 25, for your metric applications. |
