Does anybody know where I can find those quick release knob/bolts to tighten up your dish when moving it around like the ones on the DirecTV or Dish mounts. I find it easier to use those then using the plain screw and bolt. I checked my local Home Depot, but didn't see anything like those, but then again I didn't ask.

Are you talking about wing nuts and bolts? If so, wing nuts can be found at the hardware store.
Not sure otherwise.

If you are looking for wing nuts, check the drawers at HD with the specialty screws and fasteners.
That's another version of a wing nut, only bigger.
Again, depending on the store, you can find those in the nuts and bolts section in the larger hardware stores. It will cost less money to use a simple wing nut.

Or try the woodworking section of stores like Lowes, Menards, True Value...

McMaster Carr has almost anything you need in the fastener dept, and a nice young man in a big brown truck will bring it right to your door
Thanks again
Those Star knobs are the ones I'm looking for, I checked my local Osh store out here in Sacramento, but they didn't have anything in the wing nut section. I'll have to check Home Depot and Lowes, if they don't have them, I guess I'll go the online route with your suggestions you guys mentioned. :tux:

Osh stores have a cabinet hardware section, away from the nuts 'n bolts area.
You might ask.
I am generally disappointed with Home Depot, and wouldn't bet on them.
My favorite (today) is Lowes, and they have a broad line of hardware located in drawers.
Be sure to ask the fellow who works there, after you've done your own search.
The best place I ever saw, was our local Eagle hardware stores, but that's what Lowes bought out when they moved in.
I went by Grainger last week, to get a sheet of PVC for a project.
They have an on-line catalog. Might be worth a look.
My store had to get the plastic from Chicago.
For in-stock items or will-call on my Chicago goodie, they're conveniently located just 5 minutes from home! -
