Los Angeles Resource Guide

So, I would like to invite all to post addresses, phone numbers and other contact information of Los Angeles area based vendors and resources that might come in handy for those in the midst of making actual stuff for their IM projects.

Just post as comments for now. Thanks!

My first Entry will be for a neat old-style electronics store on Washington Blvd. It had the null modem convertors I needed *and* the really itty bitty flat head screwdrivers I needed to tune up the Boom head. It is:

Mar Vac Electronics
12453 Washington Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90066
310-391-6763
www.marvac.com

I needed two pieces of 8" by 36" by 1/8th mirrored plex on a Saturday a few weekends ago to build two parabolic reflectors. . . lo and behold, Hastings Plastics had the material and cut to spec. What more could I ask for?

Hastings Plastics Company
1704 Colorado Ave
Santa Monica, CA 90404
310-829-3449

(By the way, they do not laser cut on site - now we know what more I could have asked for)
