Mouser BOMs with better parts quality?

Lately I've been getting these long skinny dogs. I think they're Czech style. They're about 2x the length and 1/2 the girth of american dogs, so I cut them in the middle, and put the two ends in a bun to make a single dog.

This falls under the umbrella of "hot dog"

I think we should be really careful with letting the Dutch guy think his sausage in a bun qualifies as a hot dog. He might get cocky and try to convince us that frikandel speciaal is also a hot dog:

The Seattle dog with cream cheese and grilled onions is the GOAT.

But if you are at a non-Seattle event, mustard, possibly dill relish, but never ketchup.

Ketchup is only for hash browns, nothing else.
 
Late to the party, but for a plain and simple hot dog, yellow mustard and a little bit of a Carolina-style (mustard-based) bbq sauce. Ketchup is an acceptable substitute if you’re getting from a hot dog cart in the city, but even then the ratio of mustard to ketchup should be at least 2:1.

Once you get into toppings (kraut and onions are king. Relish can kick rocks) all bets are off.

Any other type of sausage, and you wanna immediately replace the yellow mustard with something better. A nice whole grain mustard or something. Yellow mustard is exclusively good for hot dogs, burgers, and maybe kicking up canned baked beans.
 
now that we are on page 11 for this winding thread, and sort of following up on the discussion about how the hobby has changed for newcomers over the last month/year/decade(s), let's not overlook the possibility that AI may be able to help put together an order if you provide a parts list. Here is what Chatgpt said when I asked about this possibility:
If you provide the full parts list (BOM — bill of materials) and notes like:


  • Resistor types (e.g., "Use 1/8 watt metal film resistors unless otherwise specified")
  • Capacitor preferences (ceramic vs film vs electrolytic, voltage ratings, tolerances)
  • Transistor and IC types
  • Potentiometer values and formats
  • Jacks, enclosures, switches (e.g., 3PDT footswitch), etc.

I can then:


  1. Normalize the list into a clear table with part types, values, and specs.
  2. Match each item to Mouser part numbers using their current catalog.
  3. Output a ready-to-order list (CSV or just a copy-paste table with Mouser links).

Please paste your parts list and any notes or preferences (for part types, brands, tolerances, etc.), and I’ll get started.
