My last batch came from BLMS.  Worked perfectly
I thought this would save me money.

BLMS seems to get the top reviews here!  :)  I'm sold, thanks everyone!

usually mammoth ... I've been meaning to expand but its a crapshoot whether you get powdercoated or painted when you order something that was supposedly "powdercoated"
once upon a time I was Tornado Alley FX

I'm late to the party, but all my enclosures have always come from Pedal Parts Plus.

cheers Juan, I've dealt with Rapid before but will check out CPC.

I've had a nightmare twice with Farnell, not 'cos of their products, but they deliver through UPS who are utterly shite. Recently it took UPS over 2 weeks and numerous emails to sort out a 'Next Day delivery'.

While I was waiting for them to get their act together I received packages from DPD, DHL, Brian in the USA and Jacob in Canada without any hassle. Even the Tayda order I placed only took 18 days to get here.

Might just be my bad luck but I'd advise UK guys to bear that in mind before ordering, unless you enjoy waiting in all day for nothing a few times.  :o

Never had an issue with Farnell or UPS (who I use a lot) so I'd put this down to an anomaly. Which can effect anyone given a Tayda order that came in this week was ordered nearly 6 weeks ago...

CPC are a part of Farnell, but can be cheaper for some stuff. We use them a lot.

Trying out some Tayda enclosures at the moment, been using Pedalpartsaustralia.com for the most part.

When I want some part quickly I use Chromosphere's diyguitarpedals.com.au . He also stocks lots of the rarer stuff, plus I like his wire.  Usually two days and I've got it.
