Metals and Plastics

I've been thinking about building a windchime or two for myself and any friends who might want one.  In the process of looking for suppliers for the materials, I found a couple companies that have an interesting selection of metals and plastics in both smaller and larger quantities than my usual goto company, McMaster-Carr.
