[Boatanchors] Wanted: Large quantity of DPDT Center Off Toggle Switches.

Groups,

A friend of mine who runs an MV open house with a re-enactor battle every 
year needs to build several squib firing boxes.  He needs around 50 pieces of 
standard 15/32" mounting hole DPDT Center Off toggle switches.  Detented in all 
three positions (no spring return).  Solder terminals.  Current and voltage 
ratings not critical.

He also needs around 110 of what I call push posts (as opposed to binding 
posts) for hooking up the WD-1A field wire to the squibs.  These can be the type 
with the hole through them as found for antenna wire connection on many 40's 
vintage mil radios.  Or (and these are preferred) the type with the side 
opening instead of just a hole when you push the spring down.  These latter are 
fairly common on newer military wire equipment I think.  And I'm almost sure I saw 
someone within the past couple of years with a bag full of them but can't 
recall where.

I called Fair but Phil came up empty on the switches and is still looking for 
the push posts.
