We order from several suppliers at work, Digikey is one of the best out there. I've been very interested to see the behind-the-scenes footage of the operation. They seem like a really class act. I'm glad you are liking it! All the best to you.

This is interesting this came up on my suggested videos today. My son and I are visiting Grand Forks, ND. A few days ago we drove over to Thief River Falls and saw Digi-Key. I've been keeping this place in the back of my mind for later. My son is not quite 18 so I can't bring him with me (I think Digi-key doesn't hire those under 18) if I worked there. Maybe once he is old enough we can look at this again. Thanks for the great video and information.
