The "#$!* I forgot to Order It" Thread

Featured Replies

And, true to form, I realized at 3am this morning, in a cold sweat, my latest $225 Mouser order did not include the 20 or so to-220 mounting kits... doh.

4th Mouser order in two days - .2r and .5r power resistors.

Fail.

I'm not sure I can remember an order where I didn't forget something? Oh, maybe the ones that I went over for several days before placing :palm:

Which is worse - forgetting to order it, or f'ing it up once it is here?

Marc, have a couple of 2k trimmers to save me one more Mouser trip? That is one thing Tanners does not have, though the right heatsinks may qualify for what I forgot to order, but hopefully Tanners has those.

Mainly because it inconceivable that I didn't have the right ones, given my collection... <sigh>.

Or, that bag of little heatsinks I just found on my desk, reading through my mail... facepalm.png

Does anyone have a toshiba rx176 optical receiver that they have lying around?

5 pin tube sockets for 27/37/56/76 type tubes. I thought I had a few extra ones lying around when I put in my order for a nice batch of 56's, apparently, I only have 1 left and I need at least 2.

A 5V fixed regulator, >1A.

Like, LM323T or KA78T05

Available at Mouser for pennies I'm sure .. if no one has one and a envelope, I'll probably just shelve this until the next oversight :)

:palm:

Hey, I had three Mouser orders on Monday alone (and the bastards would NOT consolidate ANY of them) - and got only one yesterday... bastards.

Oh, Marc, one of those orders was for you... and they would NOT consolidate even though it was 30 MINUTES after I punched the button - but, they did waive the shipping. I'll look at my regulators tonight - you may be in luck.

Almost as cost effective for me to drive the 60 miles down there.

Vulcan love... my heart is flame.

Does anyone happen to have any 68K resistors on hand? I need a few for iPod docks...

Looking for 4x unmarked white tube boxes that fit EL34s. They measure about 1.3x4.4".

If anyone is ordering from parts express, can someone pick me up 2 of these? $10 shipping kills it for me :(

Start a group buy for the KSC75 crowd.

Anyone has the OPA627 in hands? My M3 is running 2x637 on L,R and LTI1028 (or stuff like that). I really want to try the 627/637 :(

does anyone happen to have any #6-32 x 7/8" or #6-32 x 1" socket heat screws? Preferably alloy or black oxide. I'm going to try Lowe's tomorrow, but I'm not quite sure if they carry this sort of thing or not... I need 8.

The parts express customer service telephone lady looks scary.

Lowes won't have them but you local hardware store should.

yeah, amazingly enough I haven't hit any of the local stores here in Austin... Just found one that's on my way to where I need to drop off some aluminum to get cut, so that's perfect.
