Try a place called Small Parts Inc. in (I think) Florida.  I don't have my
catalog here, but if you've got access to a Thomas Register, you can find
them there.  Other places I've used when building my teleoperated vehicle
are McMaster-Carr (in NJ) and Winfred Berg (in Chicago?).  I fyou can't find
adresses for the above, email me and I'll post contact info.
