    Futurlec are very cheap, delivery times are meant to be unreliable though. I ordered a lot of components from them yesterday so I'll report back on how I get on.

    Radionics and sparkfun. I'd post links but it's awkward on a tab.

    Good point. Maybe have a "use at your own risk" section for those sites? They can be a very cost-effective resource for stocking up on components if you don't mind waiting a few weeks for the delivery.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a good solder that is not too expensive?
