Transformer parts
(OP)
I am trying to do build my own transformer using
"U shape" and "C-Core" laminated irons like 3" * 4" or smaller.
Where could I find these laminated irons and winding jig or related tools in North America?
Thank you in advance

Designing and building your own transformer is a good way to learn about transformers and materials. It is a BAD way to get a transformer.
For instance, just cutting the laminations to size is more demanding than you probably realize.

For laminations, see Tempsl Steel.
For insulation, go to EIS (Electric Insulation Specialties?)
RE: Transformer parts
I need the materials to build a simple (coil, is this the right word?) to generate certain amount of magnetic field. And this is for a tiny business I have. I can have it custom made, but it is expensive and also companies are reluctant to do this for me considering my low quantity order. So, the only choice for me remaining is to build them myself. I need to buy all the necessary materials such as U shape iron core, the plastic pieces go around the core, insulated wire and the right varnishing material.

Good luck.

Can you modify your design to use a standard off the shelf part? If not, still, as others have said, find a transformer manufacturer that will work with you to design what you need.
Will you be vacuum impregnating varnish?
