The 0.1" stuff is about all I have on hand here, ones that I've

A while back I got a hold of a bunch of 2G SCSI-wide drives, which seem
to need something a bit smaller -- is that the 2mm size you refer to
here? Any idea where I might get a hold of some? Setting device
numbers would seem to be indicated if I'm going to use these. :-)
I've used at least 4 different sizes on SCSI drives and I think there are
a few other sizes also in common use.
$0.25/ea isn't unheard of for the good jumpers from the electronics supply
companies. Mouser or Digikey would probably have them for slightly less,
but I often buy that sort of thing on the surplus market for pennies or
less.
I do as
well. I thought we were talking about the jumpers blocks. I
I assuem everyone saves those from dead ISA cards, PC drives, etc.
Older drives often had 0.1"-spacing jumpers on them (2mm are, alas,
common now I think).
