Where to find modding tools/parts?
« on: June 02, 2009, 04:16:19 AM »
Where can I get some inexpensive LEDs, wires, etc. at a store? I also need a soldering iron. Please tell me what you bought, where you bought it, and what it was priced. :)

Another great place for small odd electronics parts is Sparkfun.com and Mouser.com

Ebay.com

All sorts of stuff for relatively cheap.

And our Buy-Sell-Trade forum.

eBay is okay for most things, but I've found that the LEDs there are really cheap quality. But if you need some inexpensive leds, then eBay is the way to go.

mouser is much better. eBay barely has anything.

Sometimes, but not everything is good to buy from mouser.
