Yubnub and other UK builders,
If your looking for 4-40 threaded rod for chassis, I've just found this UK online store
Lynxmotion Threaded Rod - 12" x 4-40 (6) TROD-02 - RobotShopYou get 6 rods in a pack at a reasonable price:)
Unfortunately I've just purchased their remaining stock however they will have new stock shortly. They are also out of 4-40 steel nuts so I couldn't get any of those.
Ordered my padawan Graflex 2.0 chassis from safeways courtesy of Darth Ryo, with shipping it cost more than I thought but it will be very convenient for a first build. For future builds I'm going to start designing my own chassis I think, should be simple to fashion some chassis discs etc. this will be a little side project of mine to create simple cheap chassis. I need to find far cheaper solutions for my future builds! (not saying Ryo's chassis are over priced, far from it, they are nicely designed and cut out a lot of work)
So far waiting on electronics some from TCSS but most from JQ sabers. JQ sabers are the way to go for us UK builders, very friendly and helpful service from Susan. JQ also sell 7/8" blades which is another bonus:) They are a life saver!
