Hi Chris,

I don't know about Home Depot, but there's a Rockler store at Ridge and Brookpark that's just gotta have 'em. If you find yourself on the East side, you can get them at the new Woodcraft at Rockside and Northfield. They've got real woodworkers working at these places.

Happy hunting,

Ross
