Seek Solenoids for Microtonal Carillon
By Darren Burgess

By now you may have read my Microtonal Carillon introduction.  I am
looking for a source for cheap surplus solenoids, so that I do not
have use the solenoids from the original Schulmerich Carillons bell
instrument.

I need about 110 identical push solenoids, 12-17 volt DC, no more than
3/4" in diameter, with a 1/4" to 1/2" throw.  I have found some on the
'Net but I am looking for more resources.

Anybody out there with a great electronics supplier, or who has a bunch
of them on hand to sell?
