Hey all. I've seen in the chat box some of you are having a hard time finding parts. Here are some sites that might be helpful. Some of these sites have VERY helpful user groups. Some of these places ship internationally and currency conversions on their sites. I'm sure there are more, but I get my stuff at most of these.

  • Great list!  I've shopped at almost every one of those!

    I'm a big supporter of ServoCity.  Their "actobotics" construction system is amazing, and equaled in awesomeness by their customer support.  And I'm not just saying that because they give me candy with every order! ;)

  • @Chris Ellerby, I have a theater friend that lives in Kansas and has been to the magical Servo City!
  • I'm jealous! I'd love to go there and thank some of the folks in their research team personally.  They have gone above and beyond in helping me in the past, suggesting various parts, reviewing designs, and even helping me obtain out of stock parts.
