Home Hardware - https://www.homehardware.com.au/ they are small
Mitre 10 - https://www.mitre10.com.au/

Bunnings is not bad as long you know what kind of stuff to by there, way better than failed Masters.

I look for commercial suppliers near me. I recently needed 6 bolts - got them at a local supplier for less than the price of one at Bunnings. Most places are happy to sell small quantities (some require cash for non account holders).

If Iโ€™m only planing to use once or twice Iโ€™ll see if my tool library has.

Otherwise Sydney tools / total tools just have better quality stuff, especially on consumables. Eg multitool bits from Bunnings are a waste of money.

Bunnings Quality has fallen drastically over the last few years.

Nowadays, it is the type of crap you buy from Ali Express or Amazon at a 200% markup.
