I've been tossing around the idea of ordering capacitors in bulk. I hate getting a game home, only to wait a few days to get parts to re-cap a monitor or whatever else.
I made the leap and ordered over 1300 capacitors. I figured I may as well order that weller station I'd been contemplating ordering as well. No more throwaway irons that take 5-10 minutes to warm up. The digital wasn't worth the extra cost to me, no matter how cool it looked.
My question is, I want to finish filling these storage bins with other stuff, and probably buy a third. What other parts do you guys keep around in bulk? My main goal is to rarely have to order parts to work on something. Certain transistors, diodes, etc?
