Jsut find old computers in teh trash and take them from teh motherboard. Old P3 and older all have the fsb and multiplier selector on the motherboard, each using about 5 pins, so your for sure gonna find about 10 jumpers in one old computer*. ;)

* - considering that the old owner didn't already take the jumpers off.

that old thing will have some jumpers in it for sure. Old hard drives will have some in them too as well as older modems.

Heh, I've got a toolbox full of stuff from computers people have thrown out... loadsa jumpers, fans, screws, bigger screws, tiny screws, standoffs, LEDs, buttons, switches, heatsinks (Socket7 ones are great for modern chipsets), cables, connectors, sheesh Mrs Chewie rekons I'm a hoarder but I use some of that stuff occasionally.
