You can use "close enough" values for the parts you can't find. For example, the circuit requires a 250pf cap, but smallbear doesn't have that value, so you can use a 220 or 270 pf cap instead of that one. Similarly, i had used a 500pf silver mica cap instead of the 470pf.

Or, simply use two or three components in parallel/series to get the exact value.
