So I know a guy that knows a guy. A couple of weeks ago, he let me know about this trailer full of ham gear and he said, I think he has this shelf rack from Tektronix that you might like.
......
And it turned out that it was filled with components. There are shelves of switches, capacitors, semiconductors, inductors, and connectors.

The owner said, you want the components? i was just going to scrap them so you can have them for the price of the cabinet.
I said, very slowly, hmmm, well if you insist, I can probably use some of them.
And then I loaded it into the truck as quickly as I could without spilling anything, paid the man, and got the hell out of there before he changed his mind. ![Grin ;D](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/xgrin.gif.pagespeed.ic.QVVz6XIT20.png)
Which got me to thinking.....
I now have two Tek 453's. Is there a list of recommended spares I should investigate in getting?
Maybe I could help out worsthorse by offering to take some of that haul off his hands?
