*Hair doctors (rounded tip steel brush combs) are a good source for parts if bike brake cables are not available
*The plastic tubes from cotton buds can also be used for hydraulics in mechanical joints (Works well with hair doctor metal pegs, ans sometimes comes in different thicknesses. Can be a substitute for lollipop sticks. :3)
*Colored pet bottles can be a good source for clear, colored plastic which can be used for details such as optics, lights, etc.
*Emery rods (used for polishing fingernails, The pink and white soft stick) can be used as a substitute for fine grade sandpaper. The pink is for fine sanding, the white part is for superfine sanding. The gray is good for polishing.
*Santa hats (which can be bought at divisoria for about P20 each) are good sources for red colored LEDs.
*Craft braided twine is a good substitute for cables. Similar to the mesh pipes used on the knee joints of MG GM Type C models.
I'll try to post a bit more later. ^__^v
