Hi Colin.

The copper looks quite dull but clean now, did you blast them? Are you going to tin the ends now? If do, can you share that process too? Thanks for sharing re the drilling of holes, that is a great way!

Lynn, this might help.
Tubular, tinned copper braid is all over ebay, you just need to use the right search terms (and avoid the wrong ones!).

Copper braid got me 3870 listings! Too many. I saw most were bracelets and 1 cent coins.

But then: copper braid -cent -wrist -bracelet got me 450 listings.
(note the minus or - in front of a word deletes it from a search which is very handy in removing the unwanted things once you see them clogging up a search)

Ive also used tinned braid, earth strap, copper strap other similar words which all yield different (or the same!) results.


Cheers,
Ian.
