Parts.reprap.org
parts.reprap.org died the death of bitrotting. D'oh.
In the days when RepRap moved from the very first printer design, Darwin to the Original Mendel, one of the (back then) RepRap key guys, Zach Smith (now Makerbot), set up this site which contained a quite nice parts managing system. Today, the owner of the server in unknown (it's not the same server which runs reprap.org), so this wiki page was created to archive it's contents.
Where's the data?
Backup of the Google Spreadsheet which acted as a database.
Backup of the Intermediate SQL dump.
Backup of the web page source code.
How to find the part I need?
Open either the Google spreadsheet or the backup of it and watch out for table tabs. The first tabs list all parts, countries and sucht stuff. After that you'll find a table dedicated to each piece of electronics. Review a parts' name in the list with all parts (first tab) to find vendors.
Extra bonus if you bring the result of this simple research into a table on the wiki page pointing to the data!
