content: Long shot, but I really badly need like 30x M11 x 1mm hex nuts for some DC Jacks.My usually supplier is off for china new year.I've checked all the usual places with no luck, except for eBay and I have my doubts they are actually china in disguise so wont ship for ages.Any ideas? M11 is a hard size to find.

content: Not sure how desperately you need them, but mcmaster has something:https://www.mcmaster.com/fasteners/thread-size~m11/At this price point, I would just 3d print something, and epoxy the shit out of it. 6$ a fastener is tough.
