Hi all

If you really want cheap copper wire, contact any electrician for all there scrape pieces and strip it out of the plastic. This is what I do. Its amazing how much you can find lying around, even after there've been at your school

Lead prices have also risen dramatically too. So I wonder if all the lead based chemicals will also rise in price. Does any one know?
