I'm building a couple effects pedals and would like to get a sturdy metal foot push on/push off switch like MXR uses

Does anyone know where to find these?

The carling switches are alot more expensive but everyone swears theyt are the best and last the longest. I had some cheap switches die pretty quickly when you use them to step on

Hey, this is a great place! I'm working on a multiple guitar switcher pedal using a rebuilt Fender footswitch I picked up at the guitar show for a song. Only problem was the original had single pole switches and new circuit needed double pole. A quick check of Mouser showed they were asking almost twenty bucks a pop for Carling DPDT! Yikes! Small bear has THE price!
