Warning for those living North of the border:
After having placed an order last night, and having it confirmed by
email, I just received a note from MacMaster, stating that "due to the
ever increasing complexity of United States export regulations,
McMaster-Carr will only process orders from a few long-established
customers in Canada."
They could have placed a notice on the web site, but they let your
order go through, confirm it, and only then they check your address.
Aggravating.
What's worse, I don't think there is comparable source of tools and
materials... Or is there?

I placed an order with MSC yesterday. At first sight, they seem to be
comparable to MacMaster, in terms of stock variety.

I may be the only person who finds those little paper part number stickers on
Zenith parts particularly annoying. Sure, I want to know what the part number
is, but these little beasts attract dirt and grease, and don't like to come
off cleanly.
In case I'm not the only person, I have posted the method I'm using to remove
the paper stickers:
http://www.anemicaardvark.com/Z601XL/
This method removes them with relative ease, and even gets rid of the residue
left by the adhesive.

Lacquer thinner, spray bottle. Shoot, wait, and off they come. Usually.

I wouldn't personally do this in my aircraft, for several reasons:
1. Foreign Object Damage (FOD). The adhesive on the stickers will eventually
release, and the sticker will fall off. When it does, it can jam controls and
cause similar problems.
2. The adhesive on the sticker attracts dirt and other trash. It can
contribute to corrosion, some of it in areas that aren't visible.
3. Weight. An individual sticker doesn't weigh much, but all the stickers in
the airplane weigh something.
4. They (in my view) look tacky, no pun intended.
