I split my order up so that I ordered most of the stuff on my first order and bought the rest of what I needed on the second. Shipping will be more expensive if you are shipping extrusion, so you may want to order all or your extrusion on the first order and then all of the fasteners on the second order rather than some extrusion on both orders.

Most buildlog.net people are new customers. 8020 eats their lunch in the DIY and CNC market. This is a good chance for them to get into this market. Most of us are also professionals. We will take Misumi to work with us too. I have used 8020 for years at work. After getting a taste of Misumi and their way better prices, customer service and delivery, I have converted some work projects from 8020 to Misumi. Bottom line, buildlog.net is a huge free advertisement for Misumi. Up to today, no one has ever said a bad thing about them on this forum. Having a fixed kit of part numbers might appeal to them too.
If anyone wants to take the lead on this and has good powers of persuasion, please contact me. I can give you a buildlog.net email address to add some cred.
