40,000 models/drawings free at McMaster-Carr

I clicked on at least 20 assorted items and no models. Do you have a specific example?

We had the McMaster boys in on 4-13-05 and they were asking about suggestions, changes and how we used their website. The first thing which popped into my mind was to make their 3D models more accessible.

Instead of searching and searching down through all their items, then entering given specifications, then showing if there was an available models, just get me to the parts. If something is exactly as I require, great, they are number one on the vendor list. If not, let me modify an available model/solid for my requirements and I'll search for vendors later, but I'll get my work done.

They could be a great source for part data and part dimensional representation.

Give me your thoughts, I'm sure they are still open for suggestions and I'm positive they don't watch this group.

I just thought it would be nice to see what everyone else thought.
