Just wondering how many of you are all in the UK and have built a HM?

I'm just waiting for all the bits to arrive from here, there and everywhere.

Would love to find UK sources and recommendations for sources of parts in Europe.

Cheers,

Jon.
 
I've built a couple, i use mouser for the main parts but the digikey list for the 4x jack sockets i got from maplin.co.uk You have file the contacts down a bit as they don't fit through the pcb holes. I found ebay a good source as well for individual bits but the quantities are a bit more. I got 20x thermistors for the ambient probe for about $2 postage included. Still cheaper than maplin or mouser.
 
Hi,

Another UK builder here... started off with the original Router based model, then Rasp PI based and about to embark on latest build.

Over the period I have used Mouser but also found this UK source which has come of the components http://proto-pic.co.uk/

Hi, Another part time UK builder here - 50% of my time in Nairobi. I purchased most parts from the US with a few locally from RS and Maplin. I'm awaiting local 3D printing of Tom's Rotary Damper design although I ordered the HM case from him in the US.
