Anyone have a favorite place to buy Teflon hookup wire and tubing? I found a company - Wesbell Electronics in NH seems to have about the best prices I have found so far. Anyone have experience with them or anyone else?

I have no certainty of the "lowest price" but I have bought good wire that is used in the homebuilt aircraft industry. They have pre-cut lengths but not every possible size; still worth a look.  It seems like good hookup wire.  Try www.vansaircraft.com in their accessory catalog.

Just wanted to let you know I ordered from Steve out at APEX and I am very pleased with what I got. Best to call him on the phone since he does not have credit card processing on his web page. He charges 3% for cards and I think 5% for paypal but his prices are good and I do not see that as a problem. Shipment was quick and he answers emails promptly.

He has teflon tubing also but make sure he is clear on what size you want. If you ask for #22 tubing it won't fit anything but small component leads. Tell him what maximum wire size you want to put in the tubing and he will match it up that way. Insulated teflon and PVC wire of the same gauge has greatly different OD'.
