Nova Cycle supply also offers a kit of tubing and lugs that is affordable. (novacycles.com)
Joe Bringheli offers Deda tubes and Walter lugs in a variety of styles. Joe is a super nice guy to deal with, too. (bringheli.com)
Kirk Pacenti also sells tubing and lugs, but in a more fancy type of lug. Again, a super nice guy to deal with. (bikelugs.com)

Good luck!

Don covered the US supply chain pretty well here. Quality Bicycle Products also distributes a limited supply of framebuilding parts so even local bike shops can order the stuff in a pinch.

One other great source of parts is ceeway.com in England. The prices are very fair so even with shipping, it's not too bad.

BTW, Joe Bringheli is the cheapest and Hank Folsom (Henry James) wife, Monica - who answers the phone most of the time, is one of the nicest people you could ever want to meet.
