source of metals in NL

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

source of metals in NL

Sorry for asking this, but after searching for about a day i couldn't find anything.

I'm looking for plumbing snake in NL, but i don't know how it's called. The only thing that i found in a hardware store was the coiled spring one, and so is the electricians one.

Neither have i found a good metal supplier that can supply me with spring steel/RVS that is either sufficiently thin, not too broad, not in lengths of 1000 meters or not too expensive.

The only (cheap) hackblades i have found were pretty thick, not as flexible as i would like and eats up the grinding disc like hell.

So is there any dutchy here that could help me with the right supplier for either
- plumbing snake (and it's name)
- thinner (cheap) carbon steel hacksaw blades
- metal supplier for RVS (that meets all of the above criteria)

To make matters even worse, the streetcleaners here have round bristles :(

On the positive side, i have asked a few friends in garages to look out for good windshield wipers.

Gewoon even kijken bij een garage of tankstation, er worden zat ruitenwissers weggegooid.
Als je vraagt of je in de vuilcontainer mag zoeken, is dat bijna nooit een probleem.

Een andere optie is naar de Lidl of Aldi gaan, daar heb je 2 wissers voor nog geen € 5,- , dan heb je 4 stukken RVS van precies het goede formaat.

In de meeste gevallen is de garage de beste optie, kost niets en je hebt gelijk genoeg voor de eerstkomende weken.

P.S. vul je profiel helemaal in, als je een beetje in de buurt zit heb ik er nog wel een paar over :wink:

Simply just as look at at a garage if filling station, zat square wipers are thrown away. If you ask if you can zoeken that in the dirt container, is almost never a problem. Another option is to the Lidl or Aldi go, there do you 2 have wipers for still none? 5, -, then have you 4 pieces RVS of exactly the good format. In most of the cases to the garage the best option is, costs nothing and you are right enough for the next weeks. Ronald P.S. fills in you profile entirely, if you a beetje in the buurt sits I have there still pair concerning

Just look at a garage or gasstation, there are lots of whipers thrown away. If you ask, you can search the bin without any problem. Another option is to go to the Lidl or Aldi, they have 2 wipers for as little as 5 euro. Then you have 4 pieces of RVS that are exactly the right size.

The second part about the garage is translated accurate enough to understand it's meaning and the third part is him asked to fill out my profile so he can donate me stuff if i live closeby :)

(translated by idiot dutchy)
Why i haven't translated the rest? Because i was getting sober at the second part :twisted:

I love the Aldi/Lidl recommendation. I'll definitly check those out. As for the garages, I'll have to wait for my friends to collect those :D Now all i have to do it outfit that milling machine with computer control for my handles ;)

ps. live my life in den haag, filling out my profile too
