Does anyone out there have any good sites for buying repair parts for our tools? I found (and didn’t save)a site that had exploded views of air guns and part numbers, brushes etc.
It would be very helpful to have a list. The Stanley/ Bostich main page doesn’t have this info listed for their tools. Other sites offer all the guns but no parts and I can only seem to find mail in repair centers.
Been through the stuff in this site but can’t turn up any good sources.
Thanks for your input. gal

I'm going to answer this to bring it to the top. Finding repair manual, parts lists, and the like is always a problem, especially when you don't have a good repair shop nearby.
ANy suggestions for this problem?
*Grainger's recent mailer offers O.E.M. repair parts. 1-800-323-0620 or http://www.grainger.com Might be worth checking out.
*Thanks for keeping the post going. I've been to countless sits trying to make this marvel of technology work for me. Maybe people don't want to post sites because it looks like advertising. The search engines turn up alot of the same stuff. Sweets is huge but is more product oriented etc. etc.. It would be nice if someone could figure out a way to put it all together in an Ask beeves style format for professional builders.You know, stuff like tool parts, specialty drill and rotary hammer bits, safety equipment, work wear, every fastener on the market- to name a few. Real back-up support on a very large scale. I realize that many sites have a hard time keeping up as it has to be very time consuming compiling information on this scale. One of the largest tool companies has more in the catalog than on their site. What's up with that? No, I'm not trying to cut my local suppliers out of the loop. Why should I hassle them with this stuff? They make their living moving product on hand and would need tremendous resources to find it all anyway- same thing I'm looking for. Thanks for your time and energy. Regards,Cal
*Cal,I have downloaded several tool manuals from the Harbor Freight Tools web site (harborfreight.com. Good luck.
