Spokane-area metal supplier. They carry
aircraft-grade aluminum. My thanks to Gord Moog who listened to me

shut me up. |

| Aircraft Spruce |
Mainstay of aircraft catalog companies. If you don't
know them yet, you will. Often a bit more expensive than the
specialty shops, but not always, and they have a *huge* selection. |
| Avery Tools |
Great aircraft tool company. These are the folks I
bought my tool kit from. Always been helpful, and good to work
with. |
| Clear Air Tools |
Saw them at Arlington in July `04. They were a
little cheaper than Cleveland and had some innovative ideas. |
