Mythbusters and the surplus store
Last night on Mythbusters, the 2 guys
went to a surplus store in the SF bay area. I've never seen this store and was wondering if anyone else knows what/ where it is? |

You mean the computer place or the junkyard? I assume the computer
place was Fry's, dunno about the junkyard. Jim Stewart wrote: Last night on Mythbusters, the 2 guys went to a surplus store in the SF bay area. I've never seen this store and was wondering if anyone else knows what/ where it is? |

The new place is Excess Solutions. There's also Halted Specialties, Alltronics (which may not have a retail location anymore), Mike Quinn's (near Oakland Airport). Hal-Tek has closed. There probably are still a few more. Triangle machinery in San Jose is incredible. They had a table covered with ballscrews! Jon |

The metal yard looked like Alan Steel and Supply on 101 & Whipple (east) Redwood City, CA 650-369-2526. The computer outlet looked like Surplus Computer Retail Store located at 1600 Duane Ave, Santa Clara, CA. -Winston |
