[Public-List] questions about bronze fasteners

[Jeffrey]

Brian,

I buy my bronze fasteners and other stuff from these guys:

http://www.mertons.com/

Good to deal with, great prices and great service. They guy that mans
the phone is helpful if you have questions.

I've used all silicon bronze for my boat woodworking projects. I
believe bronze is the proper fastener material for boats like ours.
What kind of projects?
