You can also find precision resistors in a lot of older bridges at hamfest. I have seen a lot of Leeds and Northrup bridges available. If the bridge is inop, you usually can get it for close to nothing. Sometimes just one string of resistors will have been burned out and the rest will be available. Brian KD4FM

Not all will be really useful as they are open style, wirewound on mica cards, and pretty fragile.

It probably depends when they were made. Most that I have seen, have been wire-wound on waxed paper bobbins. I'm just pointing out some sources - everybody's mileage will vary. J.
