Check with HVAC installers. The shops usually have a few from systems
they've updated. They will usually either give them away or sell them
dirt cheap. They gave me one.

Furnace installers just take them to the scrap yard when they do a
replacement. Stop by a few shops and see if you can catch one before it
goes to the heap - they'll probably just give it to you. I've gotten a
couple that way.

Industrial scrap yard. These things are common, from other people's
scrap HVAC systems.

Klein bottle for rent. Apply within.
I got one free also. But I gave a $10 bill anyhow. Call HVAC places under
"Furnaces" in the Yellow Pages in your area. It works great in a shop-built
box.
