I'm looking to source about (12) 3" flat washers for a yard game.....they need to be ~ 1/8" to 3/16" thick or heavier. Anyone know where I can source something like that?

Scott, if you are looking for something along the line of a fender washer, you might want to check with a local HVAC distributor. I occasionally have the opportunity to "pick up" some rather large fender-type washers from the tin knockers - sheet metal guys on the construction jobs that I inhabit daily.

Assuming you're after a 3" outer diam, and not a 3" hole size, try googling on "fender washers". I just tried a place I've used before for oddball fasteners but the biggest they have is 1/2"x2". (http://www.boltdepot.com/product.aspx?cc=12&cs=63&cm=7)

Hi, you might try this place http://www.washersusa.com/stockf.html. If they don't have it, they will make it for you.

There is a store in our area called "TRACTOR SUPPLY" that carries them.

Blacksmith/welding and manufacturing companies and farm implement dealers will have them.

I just played that game last weekend! I don't know where they got the washers..but it's a good game.:) Do you play it like Texas Washers (sorta like horseshoes) or with three target holes for points?
