Just joined the forum to contribute as much as I can! Would like to place my site up here as a great resource for finding tool parts. Pretty much any replacement parts you need for your tools and equipment can be found at
eReplacementParts dot com
- So hope this helps with your Home DIY projects!

I replaced the . with dot in the url above and removed the direct link.
Reason: Members are not permitted to place adverts for their own products/companies.
However, this could be a very useful website for finding parts for tools. So I want to keep the link, :-\ but don't want to provide a search engine the information for commercial self promotion.

I've had contact with Brandon. He or his company ereplacementparts dot com is not the usual spammer. He/they do have a useful service. This topic will remain here and it won't actually hurt a thing to have one direct link active here.

Thank you MountainDon for the support. From what I have seen so far, this is a respectable forum with a great community. I look forward to contributing and aiding in what ways I can.
As a test I looked for a pin for my Makita BTW450
Found it with a price. http://www.ereplacementparts.com/pin-4-p-14203.html
I wore the first one - pin only - out driving an estimated 1500 or more six inch 3/4 dia lag screws. Not bad - I didn't have to look very hard - nice to have the parts pix. I'll have to order it one of these days.

Compare prices here.
Since the original post here I've used eReplacementparts.com to get parts for a few tools. The prices always are good when I compare the cost of parts and shipping elsewhere. They communicate very well with confirmations and tracking numbers. Their delivery is fast and reliable. The fast and reliable is more than I can say about some one other place in particular I ordered chain saw parts from.
I have had abysmal service and poor communication from mowerpartpros.com. Good prices on the parts I wanted, but the service is lousy. They billed the credit card the day after the order was placed, stated the order would be shipped on a day 4 days in the future. After 2 weeks nothing had arrived. They did not answer emails and their telephone had a machine stating to email them. I advised the CC company of the difficulties. They reversed the charge and credited my CC account. The order did finally arrive; it had been shipped 37 days after the credit card had been charged. So now I have the parts, I still have the credit card refund and I'm waiting to see how this shakes out.
I ran across this site while looking for weedeater parts last year. I was going to post it then and forgot. d* Well this year I used them again for chain saw parts. Good site . They have parts for different brands of outdoor power equipment. Just thought I would pass it along.

Good to know :) I keep those links in my favorites in a parts file. I've used ereplacement a number of times, this week they had a new sheave for my little planer, they've had brushes for several tools, a router collet (yeah I found the old one the day the new one arrived d*), switches, etc. Good folks, so far no misses.
