studley67 - had a "Light Bulb" Moment!

Noticed you are in ADL (So am I). The connector stuff I bought from Great Plains Elec is available form Aztronics in    
170 Sturt Street
Adelaide SA 5000
(08) 8212 6212

I walked in there on Monday this week after placing the order    Only pain is they don't have the 24pin connector, you would need to use smaller.
Bit faster than waiting for the US shipment. These guys have header pins as well. Plus they sell a Molex cimping tool similar to the one I bought for $70ish - I paid $200 from Farnell...
