Supplies and other Toys
This page contains a detailed list of the parts and tools that I have had to
purchase to get from A to Z on my projects. The name of the supplier is listed
as well as all the items that I purchased from them. I will also include contact
information and a web link (if applicable).
DISCLAIMER: Please note that I have no affiliation with, financial
interest in or agreement of any kind with any of the suppliers listed here. In
fact I seriously doubt that any of them know I'm alive. There are many other
companies that sell these same products. These just happen to be the ones I
used.......take it for what it's worth. I have added a star rating to each
supplier based upon how fast, friendly and how well they communicated. The score
also considers value to cost.( I am only scoring the supplier here NOT the
products themselves) . The lowest score is 1 star (*) the highest is 5 stars
(*****). I consider MOST normal suppliers to be about 3 stars,
that means they do things to about the level of service that most people
consider "normal".
But nothing particularly noteworthy.
