Parts, where to get them?

[CaptJR]

Where is the sticky that tells different places to get parts like switchs. Good parts that is. I am making a new box (wood) for my Gripper guts and I want to put a switch in it that doesn't click. Recommendations?

Thank you,
JR

I kind of wish there was a sticky like this too... Maybe we should do it, start a new thread compiling a comprehensive list of parts that people have used in mods that they likes and have worked well.
But more to your switch issue. I have used these switches and they are great! They are also available from digikey. They are not clicky, and are tough.http://www.newark.com/multicomp/r13-502ma-05-b/switch-pushbutton-spst-3a-250v/dp/03P2487

Thank you Sam. Looks like I will find everything I need there. Battery connectors too.
