I'm after some 6mm (or 1/4") Mushroom Buttons/Plugs, does anyone know of a source in Australia. I can find them in the USA, but the postage is just plain ridiculous.

Thanks for the link China, but the smallest they have is 9.5mm (3/8"). So I'm still looking. :)

I should have read your post more dilligently, I've never seen 1/4" so I don't like your chances, do know someone with a lathe who turn some up for you

Found some on good old eBay: Oak solid wood mushroom head screw cover 50pcs 6.5m | eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Oak-solid-wood-mushroom-head-screw-cover-50pcs-6-5m-/220716502593?pt=UK_BOI_Building_Materials_Supplies_Carpentry_Woodwork_ET&hash=item3363ba8e41)

They're in the UK so better check with them about postage, but I've had stuff send from there before and it wasn't expensive at all.

Thanks EJ, I had seen those, but he won't send to Oz. I have bought some from USA, and am putting up with the high postage cost as I couldn't find any alternative.
