A couple of suppliers I use. I'm not connected with them but they should save you money.

First sells cutting tools – drills, milling cutters, lathe inserts etc. Named quality tools for cheaper than the un-named stuff that the model engineer shops sell!

Second is a steel supplier, they are in a Glossop, Derbyshire. I usually collect and the minimum order is £35.

Thanks Chris, those are new to me. GBR looks dangerously close to where I am, so I may be darkening their door at some stage…
