I'm looking for a website or catalog that has misc parts (switches, connectors, and the like) as well as plastic housings, etc. any suggestions? thx |

If you want to save a lot of money try these guys: www.bgmicro.com/ www.mpja.com/ I've done a lot of business with both and they have been great.

The previously mentioned Digikey and Mouser are great. I also buy a lot from Jameco. www.jameco.com |
|
All of the above suggestions are excellent. By a long shot, my favorite is Mouser - They have a broad selection of parts, their service is un-f'n believable, and they don't chanrge a "small order" fee for orders under a certain dollar amount (unlike Digi-Key and Newark). After you become a customer, they'll send you a new catalog every few months - which in itself is enough of a reason to order from them. |

www.allelectronics.com/ I used to get their catalog all the time back in eng. school, they always had loose items, fun knick-knacky electronics components, housings, standoffs, all variety of doo-dads to build pretty much anything. Newark, Digikey, and the likes are a going to be a little more robust as far as component selections are concenred (my company frequently lets those two supply our hardware / component assembly kits). Buy in bulk and save, blahblahblah. |
Its been awhile, but I use to do most of my business with Jameco |
