Hi Paul,

First, call Pitsco Dacta (800) 534-6784 or go to their website (
http://www.pitsco.com/p/catrequest.html) and get their catalogs... they have
spare gears/sensors/pulleys/etc.

Then get Lego Shop at Home on the phone and get a January 2000 catalog.  Keep
these by your computer desk as you head out to eBay or AuctionWatch looking
for LEGO.  Someone suggested looking at auctions that don't have LEGO in their
description as they tend to get fewer bids.

Another good source is Baylit (Bricks As You Like It) at
http://home.att.net/~baylit/...  another huge list of parts.

Use these resources when you look for auction parts as a "blue book value",
but of course supply and demand apply...

Hi to all!

I've been enjoying the dialog for some time now.

I am working on a RCX bot, two bricks - one for movement the other for - well,
it's really just an Inventorbot at the moment, but who knows.

I am at a loss as to where to purchase parts.  ie: rubber wheels, turntables,
hinged parts (for mounting light sensors, for example).   I am sure some of • you
have overcome this problem.  Please share your experience and 800 numbers will
really be appreciated.

Thank you!
