I don't know what I'd do without online suppliers. I think there are a lot of stupid sites using either PDFs to sell or are nothing more than flytraps to catch the users name address and phone so a salesman can call and sell over priced goods with a large percentage still 3 or 4 page brochure ware. I find Sandvik Coromants site bad to get around but once you get the PDF it is identical to the paper version. They seem to have made their site as difficult as possible to navigate even though the information is there. But there are sites with online purchase like http://www.mscdirect.co.uk/Milling/1375.html nee JL Dave Caroline -- The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel - in partnership with Geeknet, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials, tech docs, whitepapers, evaluation guides, and opinion stories.

Re: [Emc-users] [OT] a question about European suppliers, was Re: Endmills for aluminium
Kent, there are very potent suppliers in Europe, al least here in Germany, naming only Hahn Kolb or Hoffmann Werkzeuge (AFAIK, the lagerst seller in Europe). Selling here is somewhat different from what America does, because these firms have a lot of salesmen visiting the customers so there is little need for online shopping. Selling for stock is done by these salesmen, for urgent needs per telephone. Customers that must obey to the public purchasing rules (Universities, firms with projects funded by tax money, workshops of the Public Hand, such as communities) have problems to use internet markets anyway. A little old-fashioned. Peter Am 16.02.2013 16:54, schrieb Kent A. Reed: On 2/16/2013 10:03 AM, Viesturs Lācis wrote: I tried googling, but all I can find, is located on the other side of the pond.
