Some of the links also look pretty good, but you know how it is, who wants to wait...hehe...It's just what I need to make the thumb stick piece that broke off my wireless keyboard and I have been using it without it, but it's not the same. Now if I can only figure out how to make it nice...second actual part that I need to make so we'll see how this one goes. |
LA as in Los Angeles?
there are plenty of suppliers of metals in the LA and Orange county area. i'm pretty sure there is at least one Industrial Metal Supply in LA. i know there is a scrap yard that is open on the weekends around where the 605 crosses the 5 (I think) in Norwalk. there are also a lot of machinery dealers out that way too.
