  You can save in ordering resistors and some other not sensitive components to Tayda. And maybe use this save for higher grade capacitors ! Also I found that the very specific resistors values can be swapped with some nearest more generic/cheap ones without notable change, but if you want to be picky, just pay your buck per piece...
  
  Don't underestimate the external voltage transformer, it needs to be powerful (like 2x more than Yocto) and really quoted at 15V (not one like 12V from your stock that you measure unloaded at 15V), otherwise you get noise. I use Mascot 8710/8810 (because available locally) and this works fine.
  
  The most costly part is the time... it's very long, really more than Yocto.
