In the US Parts Express usually has all of these parts, especially the hardware but Madisound often has better driver prices. For the crossover parts I buy a lot of Mundorf MKP, Mills and Clarity ESA caps so I tend to buy most of those from Parts Connexion except for the Jantzen coils which always come from Parts Express.
For a detailed discussion about the crossover components and drivers please see the blog entry titled LM-1 Bookshelf Crossover.
Update: August 13, 2017: The Denovo flat-pack cabinets are about $50/pair vs. $190/pair for the Dayton cherry cabinets. The Denovo is about 1/2" shorter so plan on squeezing the woofer and tweeter together a little more.This should have a minimal effect on the final response. You may also wish to turn the woofer's around 90 degrees so the truncated edges are closer to the tweeter and bottom.

If you decide to make your own cabinet, you MUST maintain the baffle dimensions of 190.5mm x 304.8mm or 7.5" x 12" AND you must ensure the internal volume is at least 0.28 cubic feet. The internal volume can be up to around 0.35 cubic feet, so don't sweat that so much.
