| ChinnoDog | Find an electronics store. Or go to Microcenter. | 14:57 |

| adom | ChinnoDog: RadioShack has a bunch of circuitry. | 15:37 |
| ChinnoDog | adom: They used to. Too much preassembled commercial garbage there now and not enough parts. | 15:41 |
| waltman | DrownedTurkey: did all that rain wash away your mutant powers? | 15:42 |
| ChinnoDog | Radio shack is an expensive place to buy consumer electronics and has such a limited parts collection. I don't know why anyone goes there anymore. | 15:42 |
| DrownedTurkey | waltman: no just got wet | 15:42 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: maybe if you really need a resistor and can't wait for the order to arrive? | 15:45 |
| waltman | otherwise, yeah | 15:45 |
| ChinnoDog | Find a real electronics store? | 15:46 |
| waltman | There aren't many real bricks and mortar electronics stores these days. | 16:03 |
| InHisName | ChinnoDog: I liked a place in Winter Park Fla called -- Skycraft Electronics. Above their building was a 'flying saucer' rotating at a tilt on a pole. They sold surplus, used, and new electronics parts and equipment. Like many other B&M places, they're probably gone too, now. -- I think there was a place here like that,but the guy died back in the '90s and whole place got auctioned away. | 19:54 |
| ChinnoDog | :-( | 19:56 |
| ChinnoDog | I haven't built any electronics projects lately or I would have hunted down my local outlet. | 19:56 |
| ChinnoDog | Reddit says it is this place: http://www.arcade-electronics.com/ | 19:59 |
| ChinnoDog | Looks like a store I would go to. | 19:59 |
| ChinnoDog | Bookmarked. | 19:59 |
