Cheap source for ecentric spacers?

Any one have a good source to buy ecentric spacers for cheap?

Seeing these eccentric nuts have been designed for use with Makerslide based constructions, I doubt you’ll get them anywhere but from Inventables.
If you had a lathe and lots of free time, you could always make your own.

I have found them elsewhere…just not much cheaper than inventables.

LIst of vendors here: Shapeoko CNC Router, Rigid, Accurate, Reliable, and Affordable

Misumi sells eccentric bushings: http://us.misumi-ec.com/vona2/detail/110300424410/ and if one is inclined one can make one’s own: http://www.cnczone.com/forums/cnc-router-parts/208920-diy-eccentric-spacers-less-40c.html

I like this approach! I’ve just bought a 4 jaw chuck for the lathe which will be more accurate than the drill press. Another project…

I stand corrected! I really didn’t think that these would be available from an alternative manufacturer.
I have enougheccentric spacers/nuts to last me but what I really need are more t-nuts.

Doesn’t ship to Australia…
But I found a seller on Banggood that does. 50 on the way $US6.

I got mine here because they are quite a bit more robust than the originals.
