(His parts manifest has digikey part numbers for some, and mouser parts for others) No place local for me has these types of parts. Shipping wasn't too bad for me. I always chose the slowest shipping method. (I don't know, maybe $20 from each vendor?) It helps to buy everything all at once. I made a few mistakes about quantities and ended up doing "multiple trips" Petroz,

Good to see you guys are doing it too. I like the look of your gun. I've got some questions about where you source your components. Are you buying any of them locally or just getting them from Mouser and Digi-key as suggested in the technical reference? The reason I ask is I'm planning on making just one gun to get started but i don't want to get stung by postage twice especially if it's expensive. My next question is what were the postage costs you paid from whatever sources you used? Thanks, keep up the good work. -Petroz Hi guys,
