[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 4126, member: 122"] I happened across a reel of 1mm enameled copper wire which I would be using to make my own coils. There is about 500m(!) on it, so you welcome to some if it'll help. I'm also looking for 1.4mm and some .5mm. There used to be a place out in Marlboro where I could get 100m reels, but they closed down and the MOQ from the cable guys are 10kg!!! I'll let you know when I run into something. The price of copper has gone up something crazy. If I see what we paid for transformers a year ago and what we pay now, it's gone up by at least 30% in a year!! Maybe, if we can get enough people interested, we should do a GB on some wire. I don't mind buying the lot, I just won't ever use that much. Even in large quantities it'll be cheaper than buying the coils ready made!!! [/QUOTE]
