I checked your list before posting. I couldn't make out which of the
suppliers listed caters to hobby builders. Each one of the sources
is listed as carrying only a few products.

We would like to buy all parts from one (or at most a few) suppliers.
Otherwise shipping and handling charges would kill us. 

From my original post:

All suggestions are welcome
Thanks
