John,
Any and all of the suppliers on the left. Depending on the brands you wish to use in construction as some carry particular brands that others do not. Secondly, who I use depends on how long it takes for shipping or how urgently I need the parts without paying "extra" for super-fast service. Thirdly, from this forum, most (if not all) of the suppliers on the left give excellent service and go out of their way to give you information and help of any kind. As you get going in rod building, eventually you will build a relationship with suppliers which will help form your decision. Over time, you will make your decision based on your needs and who you feel fills those needs the best. Happy shopping. Bob.
