Component Manufacturers
Here's a list of popular manufacturers and the types of components that they manufacture. Most of these companies offer free samples of parts to students working on design projects. Even if you're not sure you will use one of their parts, it's better to order samples anyway so that you have options if other plans do not work. Instructables also has a larger list of companies that offer free samples.
