I.B.

I do a lot of antique restoration.

The yellow axial-lead caps out of China are quite good. The problem with 
all this stuff is shipping cost.
I'd start out by buying the $20-couple dollar assortment (60 pieces) 
from http://www.radioantiques.com/supplies.html,

You can buy an assortment of 2-watt metal film resistors on Ebay, 
directly out of China for almost no money. They are physically about the 
same size as 1/2-watt carbon units. 500 pieces for $28.50 shipped. Yeah, 
it's a permanent fix for a temporary problem. Main drawback is a 4-band 
rather than 3-band color code.

I'm rebuilding a 1940 vintage Sprague Tel Ohmike resistance/capacitance tester and am needing quite a few components.  I know it's not mil., but I'm going to use it to check capacitors in a TCS-12. :)
