Also this is an interesting article I came across recently about 'sushi' or 'sashimi grade' fish (spoiler: it's all marketing) What Is "Sushi-Grade," Anyway? A Guide to Eating Raw Fish at Home | Serious Eats Quote: |
Officially, the terms "sashimi-grade" and "sushi-grade" mean precisely nothing. Yuji Haraguchi, owner of the Brooklyn-based Osakana, a fish shop specializing in sashimi, recalls using them for marketing purposes when he worked as a sales representative for wholesale fish distributor True World Foods. Back in 2004, the company was trying to expand its customer base beyond Japanese restaurants, and Haraguchi's mission was to convince other restaurants to serve their customers raw fish besides tuna.

It's been asked twice in this thread, but no definitive answer was given.
Where can I get JUST clay bars locally, not the overpriced $40/$50 clay bar kits that crappy tire sells?

Not local in Vancouver, but they're Canadian - eShine
There used to be a member on this forum based out of Maple Ridge - Ken (911fanatic) - who sold detailing products. Not sure if he does anymore but maybe look up his old posts to find his shop?

............................or Yamato Trading, which is like two blocks away. They are wholesale, but also sell to the public. Their white albacore tuna come whole, quartered, or ready to go. All frozen like they're supposed to be. I'm not 100% sure about the availability of salmon, but the owners have ties to the local fishing community (Campbell River), so I imagine they do. These people are importers and supply the local restaurants and other retailers with Japanese food and sundries.
1050 Parker Street
Tel: 604-253-5022
Not open Sunday and have limited hours, so phone first. They are not full retail, so don't go in there all Fobby. Be cool and expect slow service. Their customer base, other than wholesale, is the local Japanese community.

Night market has several booths selling them. Various prices for different styles. I think the standard one is around $9.
There is a Groupon for that with local pick up in Richmond.

Online is fine, but I need to find 5/8" x 4" (or whatever the metric equivalent is) carriage or shaker bolts, grade 8 or higher. So far I've tried BC Fastener, Lakeside Fastener, Marathon Fastener, Acklands Grainger and General Fastener with no luck.

I was going to suggest Steveston Marine, but I don't think they carry grade 8.

Have you tried Fastenal? They have warehouses all across the Americas. They will bring it up here if it is available.

I'm in Kelowna, that's a bit of a drive for 8 bolts. Fastenal is a wholesaler only, they won't sell to me.
