Mad scientist supplies

[Alexander Watt Babbage]

Mad scientists frequently need containers for their botanical
specimens and anatomical supplies. I believe villians use similar
items for displaying their various "trophies". Here are a couple of
links to glass bell jars and other types of jars.

This site has some lab glassware, but it also has lots of brass in
various shapes and fasteners and tools and... http://www.smallparts.com/

Here is a place that sells the hard to find rivets in copper (with
burs), brass, aluminum, stainless steel. And they sell brass and
copper sheet AND they are in San Francisco! http://www.rjleahy.com/store/rivets/brvr.htm

And as long as we are planning a trip to the Bay Area (you were,
weren't you?) I should mention Douglass and Sturgess - the best source
for all plastic casting materials and supplies.

S. H. Frank & Co.

They supply the leatherworking industry with leather, supplies and
tools
