Where do you guys go to source parts for packs, namely hip belt buckles (think I stepped on and cracked one) as one of mine is missing one?
It's a 45mm buckle, I already have the female half still. Something in Sydney and/or online preferred
Sourcing spare parts (buckles) for packs

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

That sounds good to me, local and more than likely good quality.

The non-chain camping stores might have them. Or maybe BCF?
