Good Surplus Source

I use www.surpluscenter.com quite a bit for electrical, electroinc, pneumatic and hydraulic stuff. Great if you like to tinker.
If this is the incorrect forum-Move this where it should go.

There are great for capacitors for phase converters, also power transmission stuff.

I loved heathkit projects.

When I was a kid I dreamed about getting one of those kits and building an amplifier.

I became addicted to HeathKits: they had a store not too far from where I lived, and when they were changing direction I got big discounts. About the only thing I didn’t build was the HeathKit Bell & Howell TV. I even built a NOS Vectorscope kit I bought from Fair Radio Sales. I still have some test equipment I built plus some unbuilt prototype kits they sold off cheap.

Surplus Center is great! Sometimes my checkbook wishes I'd never found it. I've been using them for many years and never had a screwed up order yet. Reasonable shipping too, they get high marks in my book.

You were lucky! I still have a decade resistor and decade capacitor from them.
