Title: Cheap Parts
Post by: fireintheit on July 01, 2013, 10:21:12 AM

I am planning on experimenting with robotics. So I am on the look out for cheap breadboards, sensors, microelectronics, and robot parts. Does any one know of stores or websites where you can get cheap parts for robots.

Trash picking and disassembling stuff will get you lots of neat parts usable for Robots and learning/playing with electronics and mechanics.

Also requesting samples is a good way to get free parts, or just for shipping cost.
